    I've suffered with iritis since 1982, with bouts once or twice a year. While looking for treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, my doctor tested for HLA-B27 and found it in me. She then suspected ankylosing spondylitis for which I'm now beginning to exhibit symptoms. Combined with juvenile idiopathic arthritis as a tween, my life has been a long history of autoimmune diseases. And I cannot afford biologics. Sigh.

    Wow! Interesting. I'm HLA-B27 positive, have glaucoma and my eyes get red and hurt a lot. I'm going to discuss this with my ophthalmogist when I get my eye pressure check next month! Thank you!

    Being HLA-B27 gene positive... fasting initially followed up by meat with cinnamon helps. Also green tea. To fix long term, animal fat keto should help repair the colon.

    My vision is getting worse
    I have Hla b27
    Presents as AS and psoriatic arthritis
    I went to eye Dr bout 3 years ago and have had scleritis red eye super painful swollen in middle of eyeball during the flares
    But more in last year it’s been trouble with seeing in longer periods
    I was given steroids about 2 years ago and this year it’s gotten worse
    I just got new glasses last month with a stronger prescription and I’m already having trouble seeing again
    I’ve been on Humira
    Do I need something different?
    I don’t understand why I’m still having flares on it and not being able to see well
    Can I loose my eyesight completely? I’m very frustrated
    Thank you for the video it’s been very helpful
    Do you know anyone in Illinois?
    Wish you were here
    You seem very passionate and knowledgeable

      What’s frustrating is the dermatologist prescribes the Humira and when I said my eyes were getting bad he said go to eye Dr
      I said I did and I got steroids
      I said the pharmacist said I might need another shot every month when he asked me questions and I told him that my eyes were being affected
      So told dermatologist
      He said your eyes have nothing to do with psoriasis and your psoriasis seems under control
      I said
      but isnt it a side effect of my AS and PA my flares are attacking my eyes and he said talk to your rheumatologist
      So I did and they said go to eye Dr
      No one addresses it as a whole and I’m like do they not understand that AS affects the eyes?
      The rheumatologist doesn’t prescribe the Humira
      The eye Dr told me to talk to the other Dr bout increasing Humira because they can’t
      I just go in circles it’s not a managed plan that’s what get frustrating
      Wish I could find a Dr who knows about AS
