Guest guest Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Iam in desperate need of help and advise. Iam a chronic pain patient, now for 7 years and have been on alot of prescription medicine for those 7 years for pain and sleep mainly. I have Fibromyalgia, CFS, migraines, depression, insomnia, etc. I found out a month ago that Iam pregnant. This is after being told by Dr's that I could not get pregnant. Iam on high doses of narcotic pain medicine, anti- depressant, seroquel for sleep as well as medicine for hypertention. My OB GYN sais he doesn't know anything about what to do except that Iam a high-risk pregnancy because of the meds, hypertention, RH- Negative factor and a previous miscarriage that resulted in a severe pelvic infection. He told me to go to a OB specialist. So I did on his reccomendation. That Dr. then told me he didn't know anything. That I should go back to my primary Dr. for information. So I did and around and around I went. No one will help me! Iam now 15 weeks pregnant. All I wanted and needed from these Dr's was to help me wean off my meds and/or at least put me on a safer kind, if possible. I'm so scarred. They told me such horrible things that can result of prescription use but won't help me get off. I know I can't just go cold turkey off these meds which is exactly what they told me to do. So obviously no one now not even my primary will write out any of my prescriptions. I only have a week left before I'm completley out of meds. What do I do? Where can I go? Does anyone know what to do or care? I'm desperate. I don't want to hurt this baby anymore than it may be hurt already. PLEASE HELP!
