Kickas.org Forums Ankylosing Spondylitis General Discussion #1 AS Web Support Group WHAT THE???

Hi>i have been going through the same as you.I cant even lay my head on a pllow to sleep.As long as i stay in a put position i get a little sleep.Head feels like a bag of crackers here also.Ive had this for 3 months now.Even if i hit a bum in the road while driving it hurts like heck.

Youre not alone friend.
Wishing you a pain free day.

i just did a shot of enbrel,hope it helps..maybe a few shots of Jack instead would help more?it hurts to do anything this CRAP AS when will it end AAARRRRRGGGGG!!!

Hurting as always Tommy P.

I would have the jack as well it never bloody ends mate. Enbrel don't seem to be doing a lot for me either its my shot day today.

Daniels seems to be the best pain killer anyways.go for it tommy...i do....lolol

My neck,shoulders,hip,and f@%#&%# back hurt.im not sleeping very well,Dr.said it maybe just a flair up,what the hell i thought enbrel was going to stop this crap but i have only been on enbrel for 2 months he said that it is going to take some time.i don't see him until May 3,CRAP!

Tommy P.

P.S.Time,Time,is on my side yes it is...

I was on enbrel for 6 months..didnt do a thing for me.Now i am on Humira,worked for 5 months or so..now dont seem to work at all.I go to rheumy on April 13,i gotta get something to help me ,sometimes i cant stand it.I think this neck pain and stiffness is the worst,dont you.

I guess with all these meds and still not much relief is why they say there is no cure for As,but crap a little pain relief would be nice.
Take care Tommy

Hi John,
Sorry your suffering so much mate it will get better I promise you I went through what your going through now with just pain killers nothing else. Couldnt take Anti inflams because stomach was knackered and Enbrel and Humira were not available then.
As you get more fused the pain changes and although still bad it seems easier to handle. Stay strong mate.

I'm new to the neck spasm. My first major one 3 days ago was aweful. I had my wife run me to emergency room because i thought i was having a brain hemorage. Pain was unreal. I recently learned i have fibromyalgia and clavical arthritits ontop of the a.s. I have to go through some more test before i can have any bio meds due to low immunity and boil issues. Tommy nice pups I have a female black lab with red collar and a sheltie.

Hi Kev.I tell ya.....i sure hope your right.I cant imagine what you must have been through.I do also think it is the fusing process.My lower back used to be the most painfull, but now that it is all fused the pain now is reduced to just a dull acke.Now my back only bothers me a bit if i sit or stand too long.

Hey all i still feel like CRAP when i move my head(witch isn't very much)it crunches and kind of grinds.
pain i should embrace it,treat it like a friend maybe it will treat me better...
what the hell I'm i talking about,pain i will fight you(i use to like to fight)
i wish pain was a person i would KILL it(i would probably have to weight in a long line)
