Ankylosing Spondylitis
"Fontein I totally agree with you.  The prednisone takes away the pain immediately.  Just a damn shame of the side effects...I gained 50 lbs in a month.  They was to try this Celebrex but on day 3 no relief and I refuse injections .  I prefer a pill.  Its sucks that people in this world abuse opiates cause they helped also.  What else are you on for the pain?"
