Hi welcome to Chat Doctor, The first symptoms Ankylosing Spondylitis are typically chronic pain and stiffness in the middle part of the spine or sometimes the entire spine, often with pain referred to one or other buttock or the back of thigh from the sacroiliac joint., which may itself present as dyspnea(difficult breathing).  However, the Chat Doctor.  You must consult your doctor again before changing the medicine or stopping all together.  Hope I answered your query.  Regards Chat Doctor
