4. What Are Symptoms of Temporal Arteritis?

Common symptoms of temporal arteritis include fatigue, loss of appetite, double vision, a throbbing headache focused around the temples, sudden and permanent vision loss in one eye, and fever. Some individuals may also experience unexplained pain and stiffness in the hip, shoulder and jaw.

Loss of appetite and unexplained weight loss are two more symptoms commonly associated with this condition. Any of these symptoms can occur due to other conditions as well, so it’s important to call your doctor to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms.
