Hey everybody,
The support and advice that you have all provided me here has been truly amazing. I want to thank you all for everything, I really do appreciate it. I have read every single comment and each one has CERTAINLY helped me try and sort this out. I went away on holiday with my family for a week and I can probably say that it has been the toughest week of my life. I have been in ridiculously unbearable pain and was in bed for most of the trip. On a pain scale of 10, the pain that I experienced was definitely 10. I went through stages where I felt like I didn't want to be alive because the pain was so severe.
But by being at the lowest point of my life, it helped me to understand that I can't live like this anymore. I've got to try and get my life back. So I'm wondering if I could ask another question. It's a very broad question that is potentially unanswerable but what are the safest and most effective drugs for AS out there/what drugs have really worked well for you? If you are on the biologics, do you continue to take other meds in attempt to slow the progression? The only drugs that I have taken are NSAIDS which do absolutely nothing for me and aparently they accelerate the disease which is one reason why I have always been reluctant to take them.
Anyway thanks again for the help, you guys are great.
Seb
