Wow, thanks jolara...I learn something new every day! :)
If you have Degenerative SpondyLITIS, you will want to see a Rheumatologist. If you have Degenerative SpondyLOSIS, you will want to see an Orthopaedic Dr. or a Neurologist. I, personally have CDDD (Cervical Degenerative Disk Disease) and had spondylosis on C5-C6 and eventually had an ACDF performed by a Neurosurgeon to correct the problem. I first went to an Ortho Dr. for treatment until I was no longer receiving any relief from injections and the pain was unbearable. I then saw a Neurologist when I decided to have the surgery to hopefully correct my problem, in which it did. :0)
Currently I suffer from both OA and Spondylitis, which has thankfully NOT Ankylosed yet. Good luck and I hope you get relief soon.
Have you seen a rheumatologist?
