Thanks RAHMBA!
I just signed up to get the eligibility package for the Viome trial. Hopefully I get to do it and get more information - and maybe find more food I can eat :-)
It is so comforting to hear from you - I've never talked to anyone else with AS and having only been officially diagnosed this year I feel pretty alone. All the doctors just want to pile on more meds and more side effects which then want more meds - this site has helped me more than any Dr.
Thanks again.
