Since 2022 I have been dealing with sort of bilateral hip and spine arthritis issues alongside what's been referred to as myofascial pain.

Since then arthritis has gotten a lot worse and seemed to spread to my shoulders and neck. The easiest way to describe it is feels like my muscles and tendons are sort of pulling everything forward. This seems most intense in the mornings better after light movement. Worse with physical activity and repetitive motions.

At this time I have several working diagnosis, nr ax spa, bone spurs around my worsening arthritis throughout my hips and spine shoulders collarbone.

Fibromyalgia, Central sensation, although my inflammatory blood markers do not seem to be elevated and apparently I do not carry the hlba 27. Gene.

I've had several tests over the years, however recently I'm realizing I'm having more issues at sort of tendon attachment points as what I can only assume is my body trying to stabilize from injuries throughout the years.

My question is for those of you that were later diagnosed with some sort of ax SPA or reactive arthritis. What where your early symptoms. Guess I'm just hoping to find out if I'm on the right track.

After 6 years of care it seems now I'm starting to have doctors agree with further inflammatory workups.

My question is for those of you that were later diagnosed with some sort of SPA or reactive arthritis. What where your early symptoms. When did you know something was clearly wrong and what steps did you take to find more targeted care.
