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 started taking vitamin B-1 (thiamine )
100 mg twice a day
Three Days flat I had no sciatica going down my right leg
Then I am an insurance agent , so when I enrolled a friend in medicare (… read more
The second one comes from age disease, the first one comes from systemic and genetic disease. I'm not sure but I think you might be lucky to have the one that is age related.

Ankylosing spondylosis is my duagnoses
Mine as well. It's not fun at times.
Looking for some support. A brief history. I started experiencing inflammatory issues mainly in my neck around the age of 23. Took some time but we found out my father had the HLAB27 gene so was finally able to be referred to a rheumatologist around age 25 where I was diagnosed with AS. And I also have the gene. I’ve undergone many different treatments and therapies to help slow progression with Humira being the one to help the most. About a year and a half ago I began having very red eyes… read more
