Brief Answer:
I dont think it will help you much.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that since you have the problem bilaterally , injecting in one joint will not solve the issue . I would like to see your reports first and then guide you accordingly so please attach your latest reports and prescriptions .

Sazo , you should continue but it needs to be given in a dose of 2 gms at least so I will suggest you what more can be done by having a look at whats going on.

Take care.

Dr. Shruti

Dear Sir,

Your HLA B27 is negative , MRI report you havent attached so how would we come to a conclusion that you are having Ankylosing spondylitis . Even if you have it , your dose is not adequate to control the disease , we need to modify it to give your relief .

I think you are being treated inadequately , you will need to visit a bigger centre for your appropriate evaluation. There are many new drugs which act in Ankylosing spondylitis like Infliximab etc . so you should get yourself evaluated and it will surely benefit you .

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

Your MRI is suggestive of bilateral sacroillitis , so there is a possibility that you may have ankylosing spondylitis . Your treatment needs to be changed on the basis of your manifestations . I will strongly advise you to go to a higher centre . If you will give me places you can access , i will suggest you where to go .
