Hi I don't come on here very often mostly because I have to faff about logging in. I saw your post help I'm pregnant what do I do & just had to log in & see the rest. Firstly a big congratulations! Secondly I have started my day off with a laugh for the first time since i can remember! As I read a little about you, for the last few months your posts have been about vomiting. It just proves that we should always get new symptoms checked at Drs. We have a tendency to put everything down to Fibro. I was thinking that I don't have vomiting as a symptom of Fibro only when I get migraine. What a relief. Ha ha. Take care & rest,rest,rest every opportunity you get x

Hi digregg, thanks for your reply. You are so right! I had put everything down to my Fibro and never thought of anything else! I went to the Drs for the vomiting too- no pregnancy mentioned by him though... A specialist I coincidentally saw yesterday just asked when last I had checked, I had blamed the nausea and vomiting on the Pregabalin... So thinking she was WAY off base and just to prove her wrong I did a test. Then another one. Then another....

I'm really happy about it, it's just the pregabalin I was worried about and couldnt get an appointment with the GP, so I figured you guys and gals would be able to help.

Thanks (blushes, feeling silly for misding such obvious symptoms!)

See your GP asap and have a chat about your medication..and Congrats!

Thanks everyone for your replies, I really appreciate it. I have now had a telephonic appointment with my GP and dont feel as panicked as before. I'm to stay on the Pregabalin, but reduce the dosage before I am referred. So nothing to freak out about after all.

I'm really happy about this wonderful thing, just REALLY surprised and shocked and still a bit dazed.

Take care all!

Congratulations CryBaby, I was going to respond earlier but I thought I wanted to know that the pregnancy was something you want and I didn't want to put my foot in it, which I do soooo easily........ Anyway, Hoorah Hoorah, now at least you know there is a reason and a good reason for all the ickiness I am sure it will make it just a little more bearable. Well done you, will this be your first ?
