HMS and Pregnancy=very scared please advise!

Hi there,

I have been newly dignosed with HMS after 13 years! I am 25 and i am thinking about starting a family in the near future but i am sooo scared about what this will mean for somebody that suffers alot of pain daily! It will mean me coming off my meds which at the moment are gabapentin, co-codamols and anti-depressants...it will mean nooo pain relief for about two years or so! Let alone even thinking about what the birth will do to my hips! My main pain is in my Back/neck/hips (and pretty much most areas but not as bad, such as my knees/ankles etc) If you have any info or advise or maybe are in the same boat or maybe have gone through it all before i would love to hear from you.

Thanks!!
