u/Temporary-Okra

My MCAS has been well managed for a year, and my doctor supported me trying for a baby. I did EMDR for the trauma I have around all the years of undiagnosed, uncontrolled MCAS and felt mentally ready. Or so I thought. I’m now about to be six weeks pregnant, and the symptoms, particularly the nausea, have been so triggering emotionally I can barely handle it. It just takes me straight back to all the times I had terrifying symptoms and no relief or idea what was happening. I’ve wondered how I can go on with the pregnancy. Would love to commiserate with others with MCAS who are or have been pregnant.

Sorry if this has been covered, my Reddit is glitching and won't let me search within the sub!

I have MCAS and am on loratadine 2x/day, famotidine 2x/day, cromolyn 2x/day, low dose naltrexone 1x/day, and ketotifen as needed. I’m now thinking about starting a family, and I’m curious if any of you have stayed on your medications while pregnant/whether there were any you had to stop or change the dosing.

Thanks in advance!
