Hi Molly.
The article looks like a good one. I didn't expect that many people in one study to have calcification in the spinal column like that. It surprised me. eek2
Take care,
James

Of course, sanity is relative. Are you and Alan related? Hmmmm. That would answer so much.... wink

Warm hugs,

Hi Wingartist and welcome to KA, it's a wonderful place to find support, get a great education on not only AS but other auto-immune diseases too, as well as information on diagnostic criteria and the latest treatments...I hope you find the answers that you're looking for and again, welcome to KA! smile

think others have answered your question(s) far better than i could, as i couldn't answer from any personal experience whereas others can. but just wanted to say hello and welcome smile

one of the nice things about this place is that with so many members with a wide range of issues, always someone who has had experience with just about anything that comes our way smile
