hi Martina
welcome to HCM
read your prob , you are HLA-B27 positive, it means you have been suffering from some chronic inflamatory disease like ankylosingspondolysis, retier arhritis, ulcerative colitis, iritis uveitis,
if you write down your symptoms then i come to know about your diagnosis. so write your symptoms on aseemadhuri@gmail.com
