Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 I have 2 children and I had my 2nd after I knew that I had fibro and many other medical problems. I look at it this way, Medical science has made leaps and bounds over the past 10 years. We are now able to cure things that would have surely killed us 10 or 15 years ago. The things that are currently making us ill now may not be a problem for future generations. If you want to have a baby and you are willing to take the risk to your own body to carry that child, then what a lucky child that would be to have a mother that wanted him/her so much that she risked her own health to bring him or her in to the world. If you want a baby go for it !!! I am sure you will make a wonderful Mother. Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2001 Report Share Posted December 13, 2001 , I was not aware that Fibromyalgia is DNA based, since it is a syndrome not a disease. I am very interested in studying further regarding a familial tendency. Would you please post where you got this information so that I can read and study also.
