I am a newly diagnosed patient with Spondylosis. My condition is very advanced, considering I'm just 33 years old. I have a plethora of non pain related symptoms all day everyday in Conjunction with my pain and limited mobility. Is this considered an autoimmune disease too?
I know AS is auto-immune as i have had it since I was 20. Spondylosis is not auto-immune.
I hope this isn't a stupid question. My MRI shows my entire neck has Spondylosis. I'm fixing to undergo my 2nd cervical fusion and it will be a double fusion.Is there a difference in Spondylosis & AK Spondylosis?

It sucks. I have both.

I'm planning on having referral sent to hospital of my choosing but I was wondering if I need a CT scan instead of mri this next time. I have rib pain, seldom abdominal pain, pain around my groin area, butt, backs of legs, feet and sometimes front of legs. Sciatica both legs but started out with right leg about 6 years ago at work. The more moderate to severe symptoms of axial stuff and spreading over past 10… read more
Hi. I have a useful suggestion i hope many will at least give this a try. It's grounding technics such as planting your bare feet
on the bare ground. Our bodies respond well to this, as our shoe… read more
Awesome!!! I couldn't have said it better!
My doc tried to get me in a drug trial but the mri didn’t show inflammation and hla b27 was negative so I don’t qualify. Now I’m stressed that this info will make him rethink my diagnosis. I was happy(sort of) to finally having an answer to why I’m in so much pain all the time and get on track to feeling better(sort of). His diagnosis was based on deteriorating of the si joints caught on an X-ray.
I am negative also. My doc said it doesn’t matter that much. I have AS in my neck and si joints/ lower back. All my blood work was also normal. I was misdiagnosed with fibromyalgia and now I was… read more
