For the last few days I have noticed some strange happenings. For one thing (the most important) I have had no pain. I have changed nothing. My diet is the same (very LSD), but, my stomach has been acting up (cramps, etc.) and I have a very sore throat. I also think I may have a bacterial infection. Is there any strange relation here that anyone knows of. I can not figure it out. Thanks. Oh, one more thing, I have cut out all supplements except one multi-vitamin and my thyroid med. I had been taking Ginkgo, move free, and a zinc, magnesium, calcium supplement.

Linda,
Probably your immune system is fighting some bacteria causing the stomach cramps and has given priority to that above fighting your own AS body tissue or the bacteria causing your AS. Hopefully your body forgets a bit about the AS while being busy (thanks to the LSD), but chances are big that if the new infectant is cleared out you're immune system is in overdrive and starts again attacking yourself. I have had the same experiences when swimming in the sea for the first time early in summer. The cold water gives me normally some intestinal flu and the runnings. When I have these I have no AS pains whatsoever but they return when my intestines come in normal mode again.
Best regards,
Gerard

Hmm,

I have more symptoms when i catch a flu or salmonella, this reaction seems to be person-specific.

Indeed, see what happens when your intestines recover, do the symptoms come back or not ...

If not, then check your supplements ...

For now, enjoy beeing pain-free
