Hi Janet...sorry I was trying to think clearly...which doesn't always make it to the page...She definitely thinks I have AS...just not active inflammation...She is basing that on my ESR which is only a 2... I know really low...but at my worst flare it was a 6.

Both docs think more mild to moderate aerobic exercise(30 minutes daily) Cognitve Beh. program.= distraction...The Rheumi said we could try NSAIDS in the fall if the exercise isn't working when I see her again...And the GP said ok to 5 HTP for now...I don't do well with Narcotics...I have vestibular damage from taking Remicade...And sleeping pills haven't worked for long...Feels like they are suggesting mind over matter...buck up cowboy:)
