Yes, I have the HLA-B27 gene...
I have my doubts on the connection as well, so I will see my rheumatologist....
Thanks...
I can't imagine the two could be connected, I also have ReA ( Reactive Arthritis) which is what they call Reiter's now. Our disease as I'm sure you know comes on from an infection and possessing the HLA-B27 gene in some cases. Especially since you seem to be in a remission of it I would absolutely call a rheumatologist to get the right answer.
