Interesting programme from Radio Scotland on the seemingly miraculous remission of autoimmune illness sometimes experienced by pregnant women (some, on the other hand, get worse). Presented by journalist Elizabeth Quigley who herself has MS and felt better during pregnancy. She asks scientists what they are doing to replicate pregnancy hormones in a therapeutic context. I know that some women with ME too feel better during pregnancy, but crash afterwards. Fascinating stuff.
And, of course, today is the day of the fabulous Invest in ME International Conference 2012. Wish I were there! Would be a joy to hear a gathering of such enlightened medics speak.
And very excited about this young lady's news in the upcoming weeks.
