i have suffered with Reiters/ReA since 1992 with a definitive diagnosis in 2000. Now I have had about 3 major flare ups a year during that time alongside almost constant UTI's and other infections, and a heart attack in 2007. All of this I have , for the most part ,Bourne with stoic resolve, but now have developed Sacroilitiis and am at my wits end. The pain is almost unbearable and my ability to fight this bloody condition is wearing a little thin. Any and all advice would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.
