Confession #2,191

I'm so sick of rheumatology telling me there's nothing wrong and telling me "too bad" essentially. My GP had to put me on medication that rheum should have done. They found wear in my joints and said it's nothing. I'm 19! I shouldn't have wear anywhere, especially since I didn't play sports in school. Luckily I ended up with uveitis so I'm being tested for HLA-B27 on the off chance it's that causing all my problems. If this test doesn't come back positive, I don't know what I'm gonna do...

Thank everything that is holy or sacred or all the gods or is just plain good in the world, I got approved for starting Humira and am getting it shipped to my house and will be starting it next Monday!!!!!!! I am nervous but excited but scared but hopeful!

I tested positive for the HLA-B27 gene, basically confirming, in combination with all of my weird symptoms, that I have either PsA or AS, and because my spine is so fucked, my doctor was like "well, this means you most likely have this and we need to start you on a biologic right away" which is what I've done been saying with my old Rhumetologist who didn't believe me and kept telling me we had to wait for damage to appear on my x-rays for anything to be done. (??????)

I just want to be able to function a little bit better, and be in a little less pain, and to stop the uncontrollable downward progression I've been spiraling into over the last 6 years. If I get even a fraction of this back, it will be so, so worth it.

류마티스 관절염의 습격

1. 면역계가 이상해지면 류마티스 관절염 날씨에 따라 관절염 통증이 심해지는 이유

보통 공기의 기압과 관절 내의 기압은 비슷한 상태로 유지된다. 날씨에 따라 공기의 기압이 변하면 관절 내의 기압은 유지되면서 기압차가 생기게 되기 때문이다.

류마티스 관절염의 발생

류마티스 관절염은 다발성 관절염을 특징으로 하는 원인 불명의 만성 염증성 질환으로 초기에는 관절을 싸고 있는 활막에 염증이 발생해서 점차 주위 연골과 뼈로 염증이 퍼져 관절의 파괴와 변형을 발생시킨다. 관절 뿐 아니라 빈혈, 건조증, 피하결절, 혈관염, 피부궤양 등 전신을 침범할 수 있다.

퇴행성 관절염은 관절을 많이 쓰면서 관절과 관절 안의 연골이 마모되어 퇴행성 변화로 인하여 생긴다. 반면, 류마티스 관절염은 자가면역 현상이 주요 기전으로서,…

All in the Genes (WYASO Day 5)

All in the Genes (WYASO Day 5)

Last year (to the day exactly) I wrote about the signs of AS and mentioned that one of the signs is having a family history of AS. And in particular one called HLA-B27. In my post I gave a brief overview of what it meant, but I found a much more detailed explanation while I was looking around for something else. It’s called “The ramifications of HLA-B27” – it’s an entry in the Journal of the…

are there/which certain genes that are associated with higher levels of inflammation?

Just to be picky - “levels of inflammation” is not really a thing. There are a lot of different chemical markers of inflammation, and different ones can mean different things. We can check levels for some of these things, but there is no one test for all inflammatory markers. But yes, there are genes that increase a person’s susceptibility to autoimmune inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis. 

One in particular is the HLA-B27 gene type. The HLA complex of genes codes for proteins that make up cell surface antigen receptors that contribute to recognizing foreign invaders in the body.
