                        I experience pain in the heel of my foot a week ago.  How did you determine that you have a mild case of AS? Right now under my shoulder blade it hurts severely.  I am trying various types of medication, but nothing helps entirely. I am a 56 year old woman.  Any comments would be appreciated.
