Seconded. My father who also had AS 25 years ago, had to get on sulpha drugs to stop disease progression. In comparison, I consider biologics a walk in the park and truly consider myself lucky to have access to them. I luckily haven't had symptoms of AS (yet) but the auto-immune problems I've had include recurrent uveitis. I was similarly reluctant to get on biologics but having been on it a while now, I truly consider it a miracle drug - especially when the alternative is losing my eyesight.
