Is Homeopathy Treatment Will Be Effective For Ankylosing Spondylitis?
My wife, aged 28 weighing 60 Kgs, has Ankylosining Spondylitis since last 6 months. As of now her ESR is very high around 120 and has sever pains and problem in each position change. She has had Steroids for 2-3 months. Now doctors advice her for Remicade (Inflimax i.e. TNF alpha blocker) due to her critical condition. I came to know Homeopathy has effective treatement for AS but takes time. Would Homeopathy be effective at such high level of ESR. or would it be advisable to get to homeopathy after a single infusion of Remicade which would help reduce the esr.

Forget about the theory ,Homoeopathy takes time.Its a relative phenomenon.If you mean cure Homoeopathy is the shortest route,if palliation is your aim,try Allopathy.Coming to the question,seems like your wife has developed sacroillitis due to AS.AS is an autimmune disorder.The clinical symptoms depend upoun a number of factors.Health and hygiene being one.High levels of ESR signify the disease activity,sometimes adultrated due to other factors.CRP is a better index.Consult a homoeopath,,and be under his/her treatment
