| Even though she was off the drugs, Jo Beth's lupus almost entirely disappeared while she was pregnant. (Some lupus moms have the opposite occur.) However, she did keep having vaginal bleeding through her pregnancy, and had to go out on disability early. It was a very small price to pay for her first wonderful son, Justin. A week after having the baby, Jo Beth couldn't walk. Oh, she could walk. Just not for the first hour or two after she woke. She literally cried with arthritis pain while she was forced to crawl to her baby, like a baby herself. Even after she could walk upright, walking was slow and painful for the first half of the day. Everything was painful. |
