Ankylosing Spondylosis, Anxiety, Fear - Harold (from Redlands, CA) Harold was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylosis 10 years ago.  He had severe pain, especially in the mornings and had a difficult time getting himself going in the mornings.  His joints were stiff and his muscles were tight.  He went to conventional doctors, who prescribed Indicin and Vioxx (an anti-inflammatory medication) for him to take daily.  However, the medication did not take all the pain away.  His fiance's family was treated by Dr. Tong and Harold was convinced to try his treatment.  After his first treatment 10 days ago, he has not taken a Vioxx and has no pain.  After his second treatment, he has become very calm and collected, whereas in the past, he had a lot of anxiety and fear.  He also noticed he has gained back the 1 1/2 inches in height that he lost from the slouching of his spine from the tight muscles.
