It's not so bad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-safe-ra-treatment#post-2384823 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:56:51 +0000 danda 2384823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you considered a biologic (Enbrel, Remicade, or Humira)? No personal experience taking them but since they are antibody proteins there's barely any that gets into the milk and what does get into the milk is digested/not active in the infant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-safe-ra-treatment#post-2384809 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:44:42 +0000 anonysquire 2384809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: I'm attempting that now haha. I love gluten. But am willing to try pretty much anything else before weaning. Thanks :)i </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-safe-ra-treatment#post-2384804 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:43:06 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2384804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: that sucks. My grandpa has had it since his early twenties. What a horrible disease. Have you tried going paleo or gluten free? That seemed to help my one friend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-safe-ra-treatment#post-2384801 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:41:39 +0000 anonysquire 2384801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: yes. Interesting. Mine has been getting increasingly worse since June. I'm guessing I just need to suck it up til I wean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-safe-ra-treatment#post-2384779 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:25:11 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2384779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rheumatoid arthritis?</p> <p>I have two friends with it that said it was almost in remission while nursing and got bad when weaning! They didn't need medicine while nursing. One did go paleo and that helped a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-safe-ra-treatment#post-2384776 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:22:53 +0000 anonysquire 2384776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone know of a remedy for RA that is nursing friendly? Yes I am aware I can wean my kids, I'd rather not at the moment if possible. Just looking for positive stories of how you managed your RA naturally or with diet or something besides meds that could harm a bebe. Thanks!! </p>
