Hi just joined and I pleased to see there are forums for AS, as I have AS  on L1 to L6 plus two  fractures as well in my spine. 
I am totally numb in my feet and numbness has now gone up to just below my knees, I can only stand for 5 minutes unaided without have massive spasms which makes me having to sit down.

Does anyone have the same problems as there are times when I feel like taking all my morphine tables but I try very hard to not get that bad but there are times when the pain is so bad that is very hard to cope with. I would like to hear from others who cope with the same.
Thanks Ingy50.
