Iritis first diagnosed in 1991, presently recurrent and steroid resistant.

AS diagnosed October of 2011.

Putting most of my eggs in the NSD and exercise basket, using only TENS, massage, heat and ice, and NSAIDS (sparingly) for pain. Drops for iritis as flare necessitates. Looking back I feel I would have been diagnosed with AS years ago, if I had found a rheumy earlier than 2011.

It's really wild - loved the concept. Wonder what will be 'happening' say 50 years down the line?

Very like Dow's film on the voyage through the gut - where is Dow these days. Haven't seen him on line since forever! This year? Heigh, Dow, good film here for your dereliction... <VBG>
