[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be oh so grateful you have a diagnosis. I've lost 6 babies ans almost my uterus before they found the rare clotting disorder. I'm attempting my last pregnancy on tons of drugs including lovonox.[/quote] Coming back to say - lovonox may not be enough. In addition to my clotting disorder I also have abnormal immune activity. The problem is there are very few OBs or RIs that are trained to treat immune causes of miscarriage. If you get to miscarriage 2 or 3 it's time to reach out to a reproductive immunologist. There are only 5 in the US.[/quote] May I ask what your diagnoses are? Mine is Sjogren's, with suspected clotting disorder. Apparently no Plaquenil is needed, but heparin might be, as well as fetal monitoring.[/quote] I'm on lovonox, prednisone, plaquenil, tacrolimus, metformin, and a bunch other supplements. I have weekly monitoring and bloodwork to make sure my immune levels don't rise. It's an extremely intensive monitoring program.[/quote] Sorry, I have no diagnosed autoimmune disease. I simply have a clotting disorder and many losses under my belt of late first trimester and second trimester, all chromosomally normal babies.[/quote]
