Hi All – I feel really good today and felt brilliant yesterday. I’m obviously on a good turn so I will ride the wave of feeling good for now. Not got much planned. Oh, I have been trying the low starch diet high protein and its only been a week but I feel good. Unsure if it is the diet or just a good turn but I will keep it up and see how I go.
I work in IT but I am not a real IT person, more of a specialist in a software package but a lady who is not too sharp on computers asked me this – “Why is it, that when I want to turn my computer off I have to click the start button?”
When you think about it she has a point.




Hi,
I am a 40 year old woman with AS – 3 males in my extended family also have this debilitating illness.
I’ve found the no starch diet particularly effective along with a joint formular that is basically cherry concentrate.
Most recently I came across a product called Pain Away that I just spray on my lower back, it’s short term but really effective for immediate relief and really helps me get up and do some excercise. I am of course taking NSAID’s but find these natural options a little gentler on my stomach.
