I could really use some opinions on this...
I will be turning 29 and I feel the my life has taken shape to be right at the perfect spot with my soul mate to bring life into this world. I am the very last of my fathers side to carry the bloodline...I want to have a baby so bad. My family wants me to too..if I think I can handle it.
I was dxed in 09 and have been on Rebif since, up until last Wednesday. Six days.
I went GFCF last July and love it. I am very dedicated to my eating healthy. I am moderately active and extremely adventurous. I really feel I could handle a child. I was blessed in that there really arent any lesions on my spine, but there are some huge ones on my brain. My Dr said this is good sign..that I am less likely to become immobile.
I am so scared. As if having a baby isnt unnerving enough.
My Neuro said I should be off the meds for 6mos. Fine. I can do that. He also said I should let him know and come do additional treatments...like an IV? I don't understand how if you are trying to get "clean" pumping you up with something else is any better. Any thoughts? I dont want a undeveloped child..that would not be good for me.
Also...I have had a dull headache for a couple days now..this scares me even more. Can anyone relate? Can anyone give me any sort of (preferably positive) feedback? Even realistic feedback is appreciated. I am getting off Rebif and I really dont know what to expect. I am so overwhelmed with questions that only a OBGYN who is also specialized in MS could answer. :/
