Dear Jim,

Thanks for those articles!

One thing that struck me is the following excerpt from the estrogen RA

link:

" Just as in rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis symptoms tend to

improve during pregnancy and worsen after delivery and at menopause.

But the association is reversed in lupus, which is 10 times more

common among women than men. Lupus symptoms tend to worsen during

pregnancy and improve when estrogen levels drop. "

Sounds like those with lupus have menopause to look forward to.

Love,

[Guest guest]

Interesting that my lupus didn't manifest itself until AFTER menopause...

Sue
