Spondylitis and Arrythmia

Posted By Frank on December 13, 1998 at 17:22:09:







I have recently been diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat and have been examined by a cardiac physician who said that the condition was benign.  I also suffer from spondylitis.  I recently read that ankolysing spondylitis can cause the heart to beat irregularly.  I don't know if my spondylitis is categorized as ankolylising but do you know of any connection between this or other forms of spondylitis and irregular heartbeat.  Thank you.
