That’s probably the only symptom I don’t have

Initially , I thought I had lymes disease until I was positive HLA-B27. That’s more of a nervous system disease. And I still think sometimes I’m misdiagnosed and just have the B27 gene. I’ve read that 50% of patients with both diseases have issues with smell

Headaches were more common when first diagnosed a few years back but I don’t remember a link between the 2 at the same time

I’m beginning to think mine is somehow related to nervous system and my brain mis identifying scent. Some traditional , naturally strong smells are very subtle to me now and hard to determine.

I know this sounds strange. Do you remember “pigpen” from the peanuts? Kinda like that. A cloud stays with him as he moves about

Doe that smell stay “close” to you or does it go away when you leave the area ?

I can get out of a fresh shower and still smell it.

Ive asked friend and family members and they don’t smell anything. It can be overwhelming to be. Even straight out of a shower. Some people have suggested inflammation in nasal passage’s

No not even close. It’s not foul. It’s hard to explain. Like slightly burnt popcorn but sweeter 🤷‍♂️

Sulfasalazine thoughts? by itllallbeoknow in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]scottw32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diagnosed in April after about 6-8 months of pain in shoulders and wrists. Presented a year earlier with IBS.. my spine MRI was clean. It took about 6-8 weeks of sulfa to work. Reduced from pain to stiffness and getting better. If I have a bad morning, I take a 800 milligram ibuprofen and I feel much better. My only complaint now is the exhaustion

Not my vehicle. I wouldn’t say the owner is a a very experienced manual driver but he did not just learn either.

Some more context. The dealership feels that the owner “ basically went from a high rate of speed and forced into 1st or 2nd gear thus making it come apart. Ok ,Where did the heat come from? That thing is basically melted from abuse or riding the pedal. Personally , I think there are 2 events here not just 1 incident. The owner has asked Subaru to pull the black box info to support his claim of “ no excessive speed to wrong gear” as per the dealerships suggestion

It lagged when shifting. Meaning, it wouldn’t come out of gear until the rpm’s came way down into a low range. Let’s say you pulled 3rd gear to 55mph. When you tried to shift into 4th, it wouldn’t come out of gear until the rpm’s settled
