Yes, headaches and migraines are experienced more frequently by people with AS - in fact, research shows that people with inflammatory arthritis conditions like AS experience migraine headaches at double the rate of others. One MySpondylitisTeam member shared experiencing daily headaches, sometimes waking up with them or developing them during the day. Regarding eye symptoms, eye inflammation is a known issue with AS that typically affects one eye at a time and can cause redness and pain. If you're experiencing any eye problems or vision changes, it's important to see a doctor right away to prevent potential vision loss. The combination of eye symptoms and headaches should be evaluated by your healthcare team to determine the best treatment approach. BME (bone marrow edema) can contribute to your overall discomfort, particularly in the sacroiliac joint area. While BME typically causes bone pain that worsens during rest, the combination of symptoms you're experiencing should be discussed with your doctor, as they may need to adjust your treatment plan.
