I have had guillain barre syndrome, bells palsy, measles, chicken pox, and herpes simplex. i was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis at 50, after being paralyzed from the waist down. i recovered and am walking again. are these connected somehow?

There is possibly causal relationship between Bell's palsy and herpes simplex infection and GBS can develop after a viral illness; however, there is no relationship between ankylosing spondylitis and other conditions by my knowledge.

Bell’s palsy is due to herpes simplex or zoster but can a part of Guillain-Barre and sarcoidosis. GB is autoimmune associated with influenza A or mono. Ankylosing Spondylitis due to HLA-B27 genetics
