Brief Answer:
AS has better options now
Detailed Answer:
Hi
First would like to ask if it was properly diagnosed. Because I did not check it by lab tests. You should understand the importance of lifestyle changes mentioned by the doc in his prescription.
This is disease is yet to be completely understood by clinicians. THe prognosis factors are not completely known. However good treatments are in place to control the pain and suffering. You need to check with specialist Rheumatologist.
Follow up and checking for early complications are key. The specialist can chime in and check the complications with newer drugs.
Hope this helps.
Etoshine is the key it is the main pain reliever. You should continue taking it and it has minimal side effects.
