Strapped Budget Diet/eating Habits?
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am STRAPPED big time currently $$ wise. We are also rolling into winter so very limited on fresh fruits & veggies... I LOVE Salmon but it is just EXPENSIVE. I really struggle with GI flares... I tend to ignore the pain and keep going so my body uses GI FLARES to MAKE me stop... I just can't always stop as I still try to transition after a diagnosis so recent but after decades of having AS symptoms. I know I need to focus on diet and less "processed" food but I'm a Single Mom, Home owner… read more

Balance Problems
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm new on here and I haven't seen anything about balance problems. Is this just me or does anyone else have these problems. I just can't always walk a straight line. When I walk down the hallway in my house I sometimes almost bounce from wall to the opposite wall.

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?
