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.

Jaw inflammation and my teeth had shifted a bit
Ouch- Has the jaw inflammation caused any trouble with chewing or opening your mouth, or is it mostly something you noticed from the change in your teeth? -Latoya (Team Member)
I've just started to have severe pain to my right side of my chest and in my right shoulder. My heart is normal but this takes the wind out of me. I just recently had a steroid injection to my neck n shoulder area could that be the problem
That sounds really uncomfortable, especially when the pain is strong enough to take your breath away. I wouldn’t want to guess whether the injection is connected, but it’s definitely something I’d mention to your doctor, especially since this is new and severe. Did this start after your injection, or were you already having some pain there beforehand? -Latoya (Team Member)
unfortunately everything. fully fused 22 years ago at 42. Also all GI diseases available.
That does seem scary. I haven't heard of that before. If you haven't already, I suggest you give your doctor a call. That's always a good idea when you notice a new or worsening symptom. Please let us know what you find out. All the best, Kathy (Team member) -I will do that and to be safer I will only use my Rollator. It has
