Default Pregnancy Question-New Member

Hi All!
I am new to this site and have a questions. A little bit of background. I was diagnosed with RSD almost 3 years ago of my right foot and lower leg. I had a neurospinal stimulator implanted this winter and it has been a life saver. Before the stimulator I was using ms contin, oxycodone, and fentanyl patches to get through every day. I am now down to 3 or 4 5 mg Norco.

So to my question. We found out last week that I am 8 weeks pregnant(not planned). I met with a high risk perinatal doc. He said that staying on the norco was fine and I would have to wean off it the last month. The RSD has gotten much worse. Has anyone had any experience with pregnancy and RSD. I have cut back on my activity(hunter/jumper horse rider). I just need a little help with what to expect and what I can do to maintain the pregnancy and the deal with the increasing symptoms.

Thanks in Advance!
Becky
