Oh Kevin, sorry to hear that your pain is back and I know what you mean about the jaw pain, it can be worse than labor i know you don't know what that is like, but for me i would rather give birth. It is wierd how most all of us have jaw eppisodes i guess it's just another symptom of AS. I was dx with TMJ way back when all my other symptoms showed their ugly selves. I hope the accupuncture works for you, if it does please let me know. My pain mang. doc wants me to try, but only if i know it works as you know everything cost and this disease has already cost me to much. Take care kevin, exspecially your diabetes it such a shame you have to deal with chronic pain and diabetes. Is it type 2. What sucks is if it is type 2 you could probably benifit from some sort of exercise, but who can exercise when we are in pain all the time or just to darn exhausted

Take care of yourself and hope you start to feel better again
