Is There Anybody Else In Our Virtual World That Is Dealing With ENTHESIS Pain?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Sandpoint, ID

AS affects the ENTHESIS. ENTHESIS is the areas on the body that tendons and ligaments attach to a bone. Achilles Tendon is one example. My Rheumatologist referred to that when I told him my Achilles was hurting. I believe my right arm and left knee are being affected, as well. I know that I need Total Knee Replacement in both knees, as I have RA, but the pain is different besides that , ABOVE my left knee. Any answers?🙃

My knee MRI showed Aseptic necrosis. Which means low or no blood flow to my tibia. My doc says not caused by AS. anyone else???

I've had AS for approximately 20 yrs and I have had tendonitis so many places it's unbelievable. Some work out on their own and just go away after weeks and some I've had injections for. Injections worked for my elbows, shoulders and feet but not my back or neck. I do get Botox in my neck for the chronic stiff muscles, it helps about 40%
