Ankylosing Spondylitis, a severe case demonstrated, at Life Force

[robjl619]

There are things you can do that will help outside of medicine. I deffinitely believe in the power of prayer and yes I believe Jesus can heal someone of this disease. I have A.S. and I'm thankful that it's not serious. Also there are supplements that help, such as HA hyaluronic Acid which helps to lubricate the joints and also works as an anti-inflamatory. Omaga 3's also help, chondrotin, glucosamine are also good for the joints.

No one should judge anyone with this disease, in my opinion it's one of the worst diseases you can have for a couple of reason; the main one is every second of the day I'll you feel is pain, the pain restricts you and cripples you slowly. I'll the big plans you have in life get taken away it seems like. The only thing this disease may be good for is making you understand what lifes about, how precious every second is and how nothing else matter except the things that are really important to you.

5 am and wide awake do to A.S pain. Watching this video makes me thankful that I'm not as severe as this gentleman. I am very tired though. The daily routine of waking up several times in the middle of the night due to extraordinary pain is getting to me. I'm thankful to hear and see others stories, trials and tribulations. Youtube has actually been a very helpful tool for me. Good Luck to all who suffer from this son of b#tch disease. Keep Fighting!

I live with this everyday and it is hell on earth. It makes me want to cry, but crying doesn't help relieve the pain. Keep fighting, eventually your mind accepts torture as a normal part of living and you will survive until you are suddenly dead. Namaste and Peace.

@GeorgieWise I feel your pain I'm 18 years old and feel the same, I believe there should be more awarness into this disease. Most people look at me and judge me on the outside where in the inside I may be as weak as someone who is in their 60's. It's horrible thing but you just have to keep hoping there's something more.

i dont know much about this disease, i recently found out a family member in Mexico has been diagnosed. Treatment is difficult in mexico, If anyone can please let me know of any herbal supplement that can help even a little it would be greatly appreciated. thanks sooo much.

@nalgarin2006 There is nothing else that works properly. He needs to take sugars found in melons and apples.

A strong medicine like Naproxen will work to relieve him of this pain with probably 40% to 50%. In addition you can use TNF BLOCKERS. This is a miracle drug that does not stop the degeneration but it will help you to to relieve the pain with 80%. So a drugged based pain killer with TNF Blockers will kill about 90% to 98% of the pain.

He must exercise everyday even if he feels the pain. Let him lay flat on the bed to keep his back in a straigth position. If he sleep on his stomach he can use pillows under his stomach so he can rest. Never let him lift his head more hten necessary as the bamboo spine development will make his neck stay in a odd position. With exercise I mean yoga, stretching, running, walking, cycling, swimming.

@nalgarin2006 You can pray for them and believe me I do believe in the power of prayer and Jesus still heals even today. I have A.S. and I'm thankful that it's not serious. There are supplements that they can take that can help, such as HA hyaluronic Acid which helps to lubricate the joints and also works as an anti-inflamatory. Omaga 3's also help, chondrotin, glucosamine are also good for the joints.

Able to stand and walk without a cane? wish my case was that bad....

[Earth8ound8]

I must agree this video gives ppl the idea this disease is far less than it truly is.

Just putting the word severe next to this video undermines all the work all of us have done to raise awareness about this disease. Shame on you Life Force!

[aditamad33]

homeopathy dosen't work trust me I've been diagnosed with thys disease and the homeopat in my town did nothing just saying it get's worse and never ends FUCK HIM ! I will get cured

[aztekyou1]

fuck you!

[getbennt]

Severe, not even close. I'm sorry for the extent of his case, but I am looking for severe, life stoppinging in its tracks, severe. 15yrs of near toxic levels of morphine, fenytl patchs and celebrex etc, etc, etc. Thanks, but I have seen this vid and felt alone because it is not how bad it can really get. Care.

[getbennt]

Severe, yes but not severe like in my case I think everyone should know it can get far worse than that. Take care.

[instagasm]

@getbennt me too, i cant even walk.
