Shoulder “gas” Bubble - Does Anyone Else Feel This?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

My right shoulder seems to have a new trick…and the only way I can describe it is a very sharp pain, but it feels like there’s a gas bubble inside the joint. And it will stay there for quite a while. My kids think I’m crazy. I have a pretty high tolerance for pain, but it almost feels like when the aspirate the joint to remove fluid. Does anyone else have this happen or am I special?

Tingling And Numbness In Arm - Anyone Else?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I started having some numbness and tingling in my right shoulder, down the arm and into the hand. This is 2nd time in a week it has happened. I can still move it, still feel like normal, no pain, no other symptoms (other than panic/anxiety thinking it might be a stroke) I mentioned it to my rheumatologist when i saw her last week and she said its probably a nerve as the other time happened when i was driving for a couple of hours..

Has something like this happened to anyone else?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have had several x-rays and I have had a few MRI’s. All concluded that “no significant changes” they do list that there’s been bone degeneration and degenerative bone disease. My first X-Ray was done at a chiropractor’s office and it shown that a lot, I had one leg longer than the other, a pinched nerve in my right hip and so much damage to the left hip they referred me to an orthopedic doctor to assess if I needed a hip replacement.

Cervical Disc Disorder With Myelopathy Actually Be Misdiagnosed For Spondylitis
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Could my cervical disc disorder with myelopathy actually be misdiagnosed for spondylitis, since my myelopathy was a symptomatic response due to a severely herniated disc at the C 6/7 level after decompression and full disc replacement a little over 2 yrs ago?

Shoulder Pain?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else have shoulder pain? It started a week ago.
I don’t remember doing anything that hurt it.
I can move it and use it but sometimes I get an awful pain. My arm also feels weaker than usual and shaky.
