Pregnancy Info HOME

tknueven: I miscarried my last time while taking folgard, lovenox 40 mg daily, baby aspirin and progesterone. I did go through the Alan Beer center in CA to get checked for Killer cells. I had wondered about taking prednisone also until I received my lab results. I found for myself It isn't just cut and dry and take some prednisone. My T-cells and B-cells were really low 9.1 and 19.1. Optimal is over 50 and needed to help protect a fetus and help the placenta grow. Treatment for this is called a LIT (leukocyte immunization transfer)procedure. You use a blood donor's leukocytes and they inject them under your skin. FDA banned US from doing the procedure- said it was to closely related to a stem cell transplant but actually has nothing to do with stem cells. So a person has to go to Mexico to have it done. I also found out I have a second type of clotting problem other than Homo for MTHFR so it was recommended for me to use lovenox twice a day. I'm 41 and with having had 5 m/c's I felt I needed to get a full picture. Fortunately not everyone has to do that. I'm sorry for your losses. There is a lot of useful information and support on this message board.
