I need the opinion of someone, either a doctor or someone who has been through what I have. I got pregnant with my first child at 28. Postpartum I had what my neurologists call a venous thrombosis or rather 3 of them. The symptoms manifested as numbness and seizures 1 week postpartum. I was rushed to the hospital via life flight. I was treated there for 3 days and released. I have no side effects from the stroke. I am great. I am on an aspirin regimen. I would really like one more child. My neurologists indicate what happened to me to be a sort of fluke. They say I should be fine to have one more child, with heparin therapy during the pregnancy. I would be high risk, I understand, but I just want some feedback and input. I haven't got a very cooperative OBGYN and I need to see if it would be worthwhile to find a new one?
Thank you,
Amy
