I was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis in the year 2004 and I had both my hips replaced in the year 2010. I have been taking sulfasalazine 500 mg twice a day, etoricoxib 90 mg, folic acid tablets, folitrax tabs 2 days a week for almost 15+ years. I have so many side effects because of this and I would want to know if there is any other way to stop taking all these allopathy medicines and yet live a painless life. I have heard from many to switch to naturopathy and improve gut health. These are things which I have no understanding of. Is there a way for me to stop taking these medicines and not deteriorate my situation further? Please advise.
