Right after each the delivery (within 12 hrs) I was back on Duragesic 75mcg, Methadone 40mg 2 times a day, Neurontin 800mg 5 x a day, Skelaxin 800mg 4 x a day, Procardia XL 30mg 2 times a day and Clonidine 0.1mg. As stated by Vicc, I noticed a major decrease in pain during my pregnacy (yeah hormones). But my husband and I feel it is not really a good idea to keep having babies. One last thing...and i'm sure the parents and grandparents here will agree, children are the best distraction you can have. Let me now if I can answer anything else for you. Good luck

with people that have RSD and have already had children or are pregnant. Vic is right! I am so lucky that I found you guys when I did. I am addicted already. My fiance is great. He came home from work last night and was so interested in everything that all of you had to say to me and others. It gave him hope too. TRust me, I am not going anywhere. I already feel like I have a family. It's wonderful!
So, were you on ALL those meds throughout your 2nd and 3rd Trimester and tapered towards the end? I so need my meds to sleep and I am not taking anything right now except for minimal morphine sulfate and Duragesic Patches. I just hope I am doing okay.
I am so excited! I really can't wait to make it to the OB and find out that everything is okay. I do have to wait till Mon, but the plan is for my OB and PM dr's to work together. So, I will just wait and see what they say.
Thanks again,
Heather
