You are not alone with your pain and we all understand that you need relief from the misery of this condition. You will find plenty of good information about spondylitis treatment, relief and medications so please keep reading the articles from people who have tried practically everything. But remember in between the pain we try to be normal and do the little things that mean so much to us, like grand kids, hobbies and vacations. We can escape with someone enjoying a few moments of their day having some time-out from this debilitating condition.
If all I think about 24/7 is my condition, my day is going to be a long, painful and hard time. I like to read that someone got a good day - it gives me hope that I may get some of the same!
