Hi Megan...thanks for the support, I'm not sure, but I don't think I'm on the maximum dose, if I'm not, I will be soon as the doses are raised after 8 weeks for all study participants, I hope all is well with you....Take care....

That sounds great, now if it will work for MS also then I would be set. I hate the shots I have to take for MS, but the AS is what really causes me more problems.

Hi Orch...I really don't know if it would help your MS symptoms but I will pick the study doctors brain and try to get an answer for you on that but it would be great if you could get some relief in the AS area, I can't imagine trying to cope with MS too....you are definitely an inspiration....I was telling my sister about you last week, she was amazed at your accomplishments! She's been having a rough go of it with her MS symptoms lately and I felt like she could really benefit from the site, so I directed her here and she's been "lurking" ...hopefully she'll be part of the gang soon....

Just an update...I had an accident Thurs. afternoon, I didn't think it was too bad but that night, it became apparent that I needed to get checked out. The ER doctor sent me to a surgeon and I'll have surgery Monday morning so I called the clinical trial doctor to let her know and I told her that I don't want to have to drop out of the trials, she contacted the surgeon to check the medications that he anticipates having to put me on, there's no contradiction there and the hospital agreed to let me keep on with the trial drug while under their care, the only thing they said of course was that the hospital staff can't dispense the medicine, so that worked out well.
