The pain

Since stopping the meds I didn't quite realise how bad my RA was I'm in So much pain but I no it will be worth it when we have got preg and had our 2nd baby. But in the meanwhile I've never felt anything like this I swear it hurts more than when I was first diagnosed but I'm hoping the fact I've lost 6stone will help with he pain aswell.

It is so hard isn't it when your in so much pain.You can't express how much pain in you in. My advice to you is to get that man into bed and get pregnant as soon as possible. Best of luck an i look forward to your post telling us your pregnant.xxxx

Thank you x

Sorry to hear you're in so much pain hun, but like you said it'll be worth it. :-) Just out of curiosity, what is the procedure of planning for a baby i.e how long do you have to come off of medication etc?

Have to be off meds for 6mnths before can even think about trying for baby and I'm being put on a steroid tablet which I'm unsure about to be honest coz of putting the weight back on silly I no. I'm seeing my consultant again in jan to see how I'm doing and if there is anything else they can do to help me make things less painfull thank you all for your kind words
