Any ideas to help get some energy.
I have to get out of bed early due to pain! Take 30 minutes to feel just a pain and not pain and feeling wasted!
I am 53 had this AS for over 30 years
I also have had one shoulder op and 3 on my left ankle
@A MySpondylitisTeam Member: I am 72, have to get up slowly due to amount of pain I am in. For energy:1) I take GNC Mega Mens Energy and Metabolism multivitamins
2. For breakfast, one thing I do, is eat a handful of dark chocolate expresso beans. Both of those help me with energy. I also take some other supplemental vitamins to increase energy as well. I hope this helps.

Living with AS for 30 years, multiple surgeries, and waking up exhausted every morning — that's a lot to carry. The fatigue you're describing is very real and incredibly common with AS, and it's not just about being tired. It's a whole-body drain that goes beyond what a good night's sleep can fix.

@A MySpondylitisTeam Member; Hi Kara, you asked a question some time ago. You asked if anyone had spinal stenosis and numbness, tingling etc in their legs.
The answer: Yes I do. I have been having this since I was seven years old- now 72. At 7 they didn’t diagnose me with spinal stenosis till years later. I had numbness and tingling in my legs. At the time there
was nothing they could do for any of it! I have had to live with it. Hope this helps so you know you aren’t alone!! To your better health- Drew
Pure O.N.E. multivitamins without iron, 5,000 calories RBST free NAKED brand protein weight gainer, and 1,000 calories Mediterranean diet daily for me. Labs, HR, BP look like those of a 20 year old. I cannot eat enough solid food calories, but most people could trim the liquid calories for their intake needs. I have extreme malabsorption so I have to go big or go home. 😅
