C-sections, surgery precautions I should know
07/28/14 at 06:42:44
 
Hello everyone it's been awhile. I haven been doing quite well. In fact Im 9 months pregnant with my third baby and I'm scheduled to be induced in 7 days for high BP and gestational diabetes. I react very little now days and am down from taking 13 different meds to only on 3 meds now. Zyrtec, thyroid and Prevacid. Anyways my question is I have been warned if my blood pressure gets too high during childbirth I might need to be c-sectioned. I'm wanting to know if I have to have an emergency C-section and be totally put under is there any meds that shouldn't be used on me because of mastocytosis?
Thanks
Missy

CONGRATS!!! That is so great to hear.

I had gallbladder surgery but have not had a C-section.

usually they do a spinal anesthetic for a c section and you stay awake. I'd give you doc the TMS surgery protocols so they avoid preservatives and known mast cell degranulating meds

http://www.tmsforacure.org/documents/ER_Protocol.pdf

It has a section on surgery. Some mast cell docs advise premedicating for surgery or labour. Might want to run it past whoever is following you. Keep us posted. All the best! Cool Cool
