@A MySpondylitisTeam Member. Kerry, i feel so sad for you with all those heavy hitting drugs running through your veins and brain. If i correctly recall we are the same age? Im 59. Have you ever considered looking for a functional medicine dr to find ways to heal with less toxicity? Dont misunderstand my thoughts, im definitely not a tea totalling purist by any stretch of the imagination. I take the narcotics and similars too post-op. But the long term internal organ damage is an agony no amount of spine and joint pain can compare to and will definitely get worse from major organ damage. Yours in better health, P 😌🙏
