There is also suspicion of ankylosing spondylitis. Anyone familiar with these conditions knows what they mean: constant pain, lots of medication, and many side effects. I have been coming to the healing gallery for treatment every year since 2013. Afterwards, I have less pain for about 6 months, need to take less medication, and can move much better. And most importantly, my quality of life has visibly improved since then!
