arthritis post pg?

[pinktinselanddollymixtures]

Well, I havent been offically diagnosed yet. The rheumatologists were doing tests when I got pg, apparently I have the symptoms.
Anyway...
They told me that during my pg i would probably get better, which i did. But DD is now 18 weeks old, and other then a few niggly pains i'm still ok.
Do you think it's possible that whatever i had is gone, or is there still a possibility that it could come back? Thanx

In a similar situation, waiting for test results etc but consultant said pain can "flare and wane" - eg some days quite bad, some days hardly there at all

I hope it stays away for you. I have arthritis as a child from 2.5 to 11 when it went into remission. Unfortunately it came back again about a year after I had my son. Though things have come on a bit since I had it as a child and the tablets they have given me have got me bcak to almost normal.

thanx for your replies, i am off to see the rheumy tomorrow. just quite impatient. be nice if it does stay away!
