Hi, I stumbled across the website today & am amazed at the amount of information here.
I was suprised at the amount of stuff about diet - all the healthcare profesionals I've asked have said that diet had nothing to do with AS at all. In fact, my diagnoses (5 years ago(after visiting many doctors over the previous 5 years with extreme back pain)) went something along the lines of "you've got AS, we don't know what causes it, it may or may not go away. Take some Ibuprofen, do these exercises & come back every year & we'll measure you to see how much movement you've lost.
Given that they were clueless about diet, is there anything else that's glaringly obvious that it would be useful to know?
Pete.
