Is there a Doctor in the house?

I'm not a Doc... but I have Ankylosing Spondylitus and I feel better after diving. Ankylosing Spondylitus is kinda like rheumatoid arthritis in the spine. It can get very painful at times. I think that when you pressurize the joints for an hour at depth does something... that is not pain full but it seems to make the joints feel really swollen while I am at depth. Then when I start to ascend, the pressure decreases and the feeling is like being on some really good pain meds. Weird... Now I need a real doctor to prescribe diving everyday as therapy.
