Bechterew disease

Hello all,

Do anybody know or has this disease ? Because the doctor just told me I have it ? It's some genetic disease.

Bummer.  What stage is the disease?  What treatment options did the doctor suggest?

I take some anti-inflammatory drug twice a day for the moment. In on month I'll take some new medic called TNF-ALFA.

I have big pain on legs especially on buttocks since my sacro-illiak joints is hurt.


Thanks sorry if my english is not good.
