Guest guest Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hi All... The more time that goes by the more worried I am about being prego with RA...everything happened at once...I found out from my rheumy I have severe RA and the same day confirmed I was pregnant...and also am in pain trying to pass a kidney stone. My rheumy told me my numbers were very high...and explained we are dealing with severe RA and he wants to fight it aggressively...but there is not a lot I want to do while prego. This is all so much for me...24 years old...just found out I have aggressive RA....and I am pregnant....this is supposed to be a happy time in my life...I have been on 20 mg. prednisone since June 10 and starting tomorrow I will be lowering my does by 2.5 mg. every week for 4 weeks until I get down to 10 mg/day of prednisone and then we will see how i feel. I have worried about taking the prednisone while pregnant. I also am worried about the tylenol 3 and tramadol I had been taking before I knew I was pregnant-anyone else take pain pills while prego or before they knew they were prego? I think a lot of me is still grieving about my official RA diagnosis....I just want to go back to the old me again. - B.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
