If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Has anyone had dizziness and vertigo and found out that they have Labyrinthitis. Does AS Cause this ?

Oddly, I have his often and severely. Is most unpleasant. My Rheumatologist was interested in the fact that I have it.
Does it belong to AS...................Unlikely, is just an infection in the lug!!

I have vestibular neuritis which has very similar symptoms. Rheumitologist thinks that remicade caused it....Were you ever on a TNF blocker?

I would be careful saying AS has nothing to do with it.
First of all there is a recent diagnosis being recogniced called inner ear auto-immune disease, wich will hit your balance organs. As most Auto-immune diseases seem to be linked, it's not unconceivable AS could be a kickstart for that.
Second, AS can migrate to jaw joints, and inflamed jaw joints can affect the ears.
I certainly have a lot of problems with both, although I am undiagnosed in the AS department still.
btw, symptoms for Auto-immune inner ear disease;
Feeling of fullness, irritation, vertigo, dizziness, tinnitus, "popping and cracking noises", amongst some. Sound familiar?
Very unpleasant. Sorry you have any of it, lets hope its just a virus!
Love gilth
