Are my symptoms from an AS flare up or something else.

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Warren, OH

Occasionally I have days were I feel like I have the flu. Feel feverish (but no fever), chills, body aches and extreme fatigue. I am newly diagnosed with AS and just wondering if this is typical of AS or is it something else?

I experience the same. But I was only diagnosed 1 year ago.

Fever and feeling of the flu is typical for Rheumatoid arthritis
