Reiters sufferer for over 22 years now developed chronic Sacroilitiis.ar
Posted , 3 users are following.
i have suffered with Reiters/ReA since 1992 with a definitive diagnosis in 2000. Now I have had about 3 major flare ups a year during that time alongside almost constant UTI's and other infections, and a heart attack in 2007. All of this I have , for the most part ,Bourne with stoic resolve, but now have developed Sacroilitiis and am at my wits end. The pain is almost unbearable and my ability to fight this bloody condition is wearing a little thin. Any and all advice would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.

I'm 32 female and possibly have a sacroielitis, it my be Reiter. It started this year June with a terrible arms pains, from the elbow down the lower arms then the upper arms (yes first left then both) and finally my shoulders and the whole back... this took for 6-8 weeks, then a short break til August when I fall ill with a flu or throat infection (which is the first possible sign of reiter) then my lower backache has began. I'm off naproxen (stared with ibuprofen which worthless) but it can give you heart problems and I don't want that. I had blood test, D vit and B12 low level, I'm taking the vitamins now, went to osteopath who demands a second blood test (I'll go there tomorrow) to check my HLA B27 level, which could refer to these illnessess. Now mainly my sacroileitis is painful but it also radiates and sometimes my arms get swollen, my hands and the venues puffed up like they gonna pop out. I try to get a referral to the reumatology but it's not easy here in London... So don't give up the hope, lot's of us are feel your pain... I like your name, piece bro
