Hi neuroproblem,

I am diagnosed with an autoimmune called ankylosng spondylitis (AS), it is a rheumatic disease. I have had this since 2001. The diagnosis is by MRI scans and genetic test for a particular HLA gene type. I also have psoriasis now and again and this has been popping up since the nerve problem commenced. I also suffer from uveitis which is an autoimmune problem afecting the eye. This comes with the AS. The tests I have had for immunity are CRP and ESR which I understand checks inflammation levels in the blood. These arent particularly high so my GP would send me away based on this alone. I have had tests to check thyroid, liver function etc. All the tests for B12, Vit D etc and diabetes. This is it in terms of blood tests or autoimmunity.
