- Yesterday was the two year anniversary of my mother's death. I miss her like crazy. I think my girls and I are doing a little bit better in the grieving area. Her life definitely enriched ours and the rest of my extended family's lives. She was a...
- I have RA and think I may have AS. I used to have excruciating pain in my very lower back. Now when I lay flat on a hard surface I can feel some bony protrusion there. Is this what fusion of that area of the spine feels like? Any comments and...
