Hard to understand: If you are speaking of an auto-immune spondylitis, then she needs to be under the care of a pain specialist or a internest or rheumatologist or a good pcp. At 17 a lot of thought and care should be given to pain management. If this is auto-immune, sometimes the pain will be controlled by the drug used to modify the disease. I did not understand the part about tb.
