That's very good when were you first diagnosed?

Did you know that starting anti-TNF early on can quickly put you in remission and in a small percent of people when the drugs are stopped their AS doesn't come back?

Essentially that is a cure and it's worth the risk although in most people the disease is lifelong.

How is your fatigue and pain today?

I myself don't have fusion in the SI joints too plenty of pain in the upper back.

Recently it started going up my neck so this area feels very stiff in the morning.
