Hi, folks. So, two people on my dad’s side have ankylosing spondylitis. I really strongly think I might, too, but I don’t have the HLA B-27 gene associated with it so my rheumatologist didn’t think it was particularly likely. The only symptom that doesn’t match up 100% is pain being worse at the beginning of the day - sometimes it’s hard to tell when it’s worse because it’s so bad all day. Otherwise, I have the other frequently listed symptoms. Right now, I have been tentatively diagnosed with fibromyalgia, diabetes, de quervain’s tenosynovitis, and sciatica. It does feels like A. S. might be what a going on…. Is there anyone who was diagnosed with AS who doesn’t have the HLA B-27 gene? Any general thoughts and advice are welcome.
