Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

[Hippychick]

Hi girls,

Just a quick question to see if anyone has RA or knows of anyone with RA or CFS?

We want to ttc soon but I am a little worried about coming off my meds and also how I will cope if my RA flares once the baby is born.
I am sure I will be OK as atm I can pick up my toddler nephew and I am sure my body will adapt to find a way to cope but i'm still nervous. LOL, I guess I am just worried about the fatigue element as well.

If you have any experience I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks

Hey hun.

I have CFS, and have recently had a baby who was born sleeping (not connected to the CFS) at 21 weeks. Throughout the pregnancy I actually found the CFS was better than usual. Obviously there is still the extreme tired ect, but just take it really easy.

Anyway questions feel free to PM me x

Thanks,

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I had heard that pregnancy does cause remission in things like RA and CFS, they should make the hormone in pill form......
