Ankylosing spondylitis: anyone else?
Spine Health | Last Active: Oct 21 9:35am | Replies (78)Comment receiving replies
Hello, I had a CAT scan and the findings state I have ankylosis across bilateral facets in L4-5. I am in severe pain, I have several problems with my spine which have me out on disability. I have all the symptoms of AS except the fever. My question: my spine doctor says he can’t put this problem on my short term disability form because it’s healed??? From what I’ve read, it’s a progressive disease. I’m in severe pain. Can anybody shed light on this? Thank you
