RA? fingers hurt every morning!

Question

Did anybody else get RA during or after pregnancy? I haven't gone to the Doctors since the holidays just passed but I'm almost positive it's what I have. I wake up with some of my fingers stiff and they go back to normal after an hour. My toes, heels, and wrists also hurt at times. My fingers also start to hurt if I have them relaxed for a while *a nap, laying down*

Answer

I didn't but a friend developed severe RA after her second baby. It can be difficult to treat so try to see a doctor soon.

Answer

That's exactly how I was during my pregnancy, and thankfully it went away once I had the baby.

Answer

I think I have it in my knees and ankles. They are so stiff and sore when I get up at first. Not been to Dr's yet, not sure I want to take meds for it. I'm hoping it will go away again at some point!

Answer

:( something is wrong. I think it's tendinitis of my thumb tendon. I can't spell the correct terminology... but I've had severe and debilitating pain near that tendon for months. It's been miserable. At first i thought it was ra, but my symptoms point to the other thing.

Answer

I developed Lupus after pregnancy (delivered 7/1) - severe joint pain was one of my 1st symptoms.
