Un fortunately all of us will we can only slow it down my neck was fused 12 screws & 4rods later my neck when it bothers me and shoulders are tight I take bacclofin good muscle relaxer and I have portable hand messager I use 3 to 5x a day to keep loose hope that helps

I hope you get a diagnosis soon. I have not had any fusions etc. I have ear pain on one side when I wake up. My mid back is causing me problems today!! It’s never ending…. Isn’t it!!!!

Looking forward to going on a trip outside of Florida. I definitely will continue with therapy to get my core stronger. Be safe and take care

@A MySpondylitisTeam Member. Thats where my own odyssey began. That was about 5/6 years ago. I haven't done anything other than physical therapy for it so far. It doesn't hurt nearly as much now, more of a tight ache if I turn too far to right or bend too far left. Piercing ear and shooting jaw pain no more.😌🙏
