We have just received the following message from Dr. Angell. Based on this information, it does not appear that an appointment with him further will be necessary:这段什么意思?
Concerning the issue of ankylosing spondylitis, there is a paucity of evidence to indicate active spondyloarthropathy, connective tissue disease, or underlying systemic disease at this time, and Mr. Zhang feels well generally. He is comfortable treating intermittent discomforts symptomatically. Some of the laboratory studies are pending but preliminarily there are no abnormalities. EKG and cardiovascular risk factors are acceptable and studies including liver function tests, thyroid function tests, renal function tests, proteins, calcium, blood counts, and urinanalysis are normal. EKG is normal. Mr. Zhang’s general health is excellent.
I recommend careful follow-up particularly if symptoms recur. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents such as ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) can be used if needed as he has done in the past but at this time it does not appear to be necessary. If Mr. Zhang returns I would be happy to see him and if necessary arrange rheumatology consultation. He should continue regular stretching and aerobic plus light weight bearing exercise.
