What symptoms of AS do you experience?

Chronic, long-term back pain is one of the most commonly reported health problems in the United States. Not surprisingly, back pain is also the most reported symptom by people living with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).

Other symptoms may also occur with axSpA, such as uveitis, fatigue, psoriasis, heel, shoulder, foot, and other joint pain.

          Thanks for chiming in.
          Do you find the stiffness lessens with movement?

      2. I used to have extreme pain from fibromyalgia and anklosying. I've been on humira for two yrs. It has been a blessing to my life. All my inflammation is gone. Plus getting rid of pain pills were causing me more pain. It's called hyperalgesia.
