Sad

My second biologic has failed. It seems like I’m fighting a battle, and the deck seems to be stacked against me. I get up everyday with so much stiffness. Every morning I grab a cup of tea and get into the tub. It takes hours to be able just to function.

I do tai chi and work on keeping it positive, but it’s hard when you’re in pain. I’m looking for a better way of living with AS besides all the drugs.

I’ve been doing a lot of research and was wondering if it’s possible to go without drugs. I’ve tried a lot of natural remedies and nothing seemed to work. If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations please feel free to share them with me.
