If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Had it as a teenager and young adult, didn't know what it was, went away in my mid 20's, my hip got real bad when I was about 35, finally diagnosed because of the hip. I put 2 and 2 together and figured out that the mysterious red streaks in my eyes when I was a teen was iritis (mild). I have very good vision now.

had a bad iritis attack and my opthomologist asked if I was having hip pains / back pains.. I said yes and he sent me off to a rheumatologist to have me tested for the HLA-B27 gene!
couldn't shake the darn iritis, I was getting regular iritis attacks until I started on the No starch diet.
what I can eat on the diet (click here) -- my blog -- contact me (PM is broken) "Some men, in truth, live that they may eat, as the irrational creatures, 'whose life is their belly, and nothing else.' But the Instructor enjoins us to eat that we may live." -- Clement of Alexandria (about 200 AD)

I've been Diagnosed with AS for 15 years, I'm now 32 and have had Iritis on 2 occasions within the last 5 years.
When I first had a problem with my eyes I went to the Doc and mentioned I have AS and that Iritis was a symptom, she said "You only think that because you've read it, this isn't Iritis".....................2 weeks later when it hadn't gone, I went to a specialist, and was diagnosed with Iritis.....Bloody Doctors!!!!
