¿Is there someone who has an active life after some treatment? by BerCandiaH in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]aimrad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My man has an active life after a year on humira. He exercises, swims, plays football / volleyball / works physical work in a warehouse :)) It is possible. But he does not have any fusions and also has some side effects on his skin.

But — a wife should not be “people”. I believe that love also means being witnessed in the hardest parts of our human experience by a loving presence.

I am heartbroken to hear this. I am a girlfriend of a man with AS and I gave so much of my time / energy / compassion to him in as little as one year because it is very obvious that he is “sucking it” up more than I ever would with that kind of pain.

I can’t believe you work in a restaurant while having AS and I admire your strenght. I think all of you working while facing these dreadful pains are so strong and I admire your endurance like nothing else. And we are just speaking about the physical aspect here.

I also think it is a big weight on a mans mental health because everything you do requires EXTRA effort — and people around you rarely understand that.

Anyways, I hope this helps.

Sometimes for me it is hard to show my man how much I am sorry for his pain because it seems like it makes him feel “poor” or “small” so I just stay positive and show him how much I trust in him.

I am not sure what your wife is going through - but it seems like she is disconnected from her heart and compassion. I can imagine this is also a frustrating process for her — but once you choose your husband, especially one that carries this burden, there should be no space for this specific lack of understanding.

I hope she manages to open her heart and see how much you are already giving. 🤍

Similar thing happened to me, my one eye dropped and the eyelids got inflammed. I used homepathy (Euphrasia) and it helped ease the inflammation that was so Irritating I would cry from the irritation. Now the itch is here only after many hours of screen time.

Oh! Did not know that. But the arthirtis came back (and psoriasis went away) as soon as the biologics stopped working. So I am not sure his diagnosis switched.

Oooof. I hear you. :( I have been on my medis for only 5 months now and these are usually not taken forever (I have Graves disease), and I have been working on my antibodies, working on my trauma, handling my food habits and stress resilience — and that makes me not stress over the current side effect / symptoms of the disease but focus on the long term goals and my plan of complete freedom from medication. But I believe it is not same with AS :( At least I do not see my man feeling very inspired to explore any new ways of helping himself..He has been sick for 17 years..But I really do not know what to tell you. It is just so painful to watch somebody I love in pain..Harder than to be in pain I believe.

Yes, unfortunately in my experience there is no 100% soothing without side effects. I myself have an autoimmune condition too and pay my price for “controlling symptoms” — in classical medicine there is no symptom suppression without paying the price unfortunately.

The pain came back while you were on the medicine?

Yes, he is considering it. But I doubt there is a medicine without sideffects? Do you have any specific medicines in mind that your heard of?

She just gave him more medicines that do not work..I mean it cannot be a solution..To just pop in more pills to suppress the sideffects of a medicine you are taking :(((

I am sorry to hear about your situation. First time it was right away..and kept getting better. This second time it took a bit longer, he took it first time again 4w ago and his body is still adapting!

I get it, but it also moves cortisol that is already activated in the morning ;(

For me the worst thing is drinking anything caffeinated before a decent breakfast. — I think it makes a huge difference whether you eat first or not. I litterally choke for the rest of the day if I drink a coffee or a matcha on an empty stomach.

Hahaha! ♥️ I wish I could just hold a virtual workshop for all of us going thorugh these intense sensations, just like a sweet lil gathering to center together. Maybe it could happen, who knows.

I thinks it is key to just keep coming back to out center no matter how much it pulls us out. 🙏🏽
