I read people's posts here... seems there are lots of kinds of shots. Anyone want to straighten me out please???
I’m so sorry they don’t work for you, can you use magnets? I’ve heard that magnetic therapy helps some.
I wear sunglasses but it just tones it down on a sunny day compared to the right eye. I have excessive redness in which no drops alleviate. Does anyone have this problem and is it related to AS at all? Grazie

I cannot stand on my feet an longer than 15-20 minutes before they are absolutely killing me. My diagnosis are AS, Fibromyalgia, sjogrens, Raynauds, and neuropathy. I hear how people describe neuropathy as pins and needles but I don’t have that. I never know how to explain it but my feet just hurt and the longer I’m on them the more swollen and red and hot they become. I have to literally plan each day around my feet, meaning I have to decide what hideous shoes to wear for the day, to making… read more

I’ve been flared for a month and not able to walk. Weak muscles from nerve entrapment after stand up and take a few steps. I can take a few more steps if take muscle relaxers round the clock but just a few steps at a time. I recently started forcing myself to walk under methocarbamol and just 200 steps at a time and rest and try more. Any suggestions? I need to build upper back muscles, buttocks, and abdomen muscles and don’t have a gym. I’m overweight and wonder if walking is bad for it.
