This is wild. I never imagined I would have to put so much forethought into having a kid, beyond the obvious “am I ready to keep another human alive?” The choice to go off my Tysabri, with all the risks, all so I can have a family, wasn’t something I was prepared for. Not exactly the romantic picture I had in my brain my entirely life. I of course knew I couldn’t be actively receiving my Tysabri while pregnant - but conceiving too! My fault that I never asked, but being a mom wasn’t really on my radar at all. I’m not a “baby fever” kind of girl - more of a “well I’m 29 and I know I want kids so I guess it’s time” kind of girl. Surpriiiise! It’s more complicated than that. I recently moved across state lines- which means new doctors, new infusion site, etc. I decided to use this as a “natural” stop to my treatment. My doctor agreed it was as good a time as any, and prescribed a round of Prednisone 1 month after my last infusion to give my immune system a boost. Well, I’ve done that…so here we are. All the fertility intricacies aside, this feels huge. Moving brought a ton of stress along with it, and with that comes a nasty slurry of symptoms. Fog, fatigue, dizziness, pain in my arms/legs. It’s scary enough when I know my body is equipped with a drug (that has treated me well over the years), but now? Nothin… I’m new to this forum, but figured it was worth a try to see if anyone else out there is attempting to start a family. The thought of being a mom is great, but a mom with MS? Daunting. But even before that….what if I can’t conceive and wind up in a relapse? No one else gets it. I’d love any insights. Thanks 💕
