Over Stimulation, Percocet, and Pregnancy

by legs333, Sep 28, 2007 11:44AM
Hi All, I have a question and would appreciate all advise.  My sister is 33, and finally got pregnant after IVF.  She is now in her 9th week.  She has had a really hard time cause of all the discomfort of over stimulation.  She woke up in the middle of the night two night ago in screaming pain in her abdomen.  She went to the ER.  They have been giving her something called Diluten(sp?), and now switched to Percocet.  They have been doing tests, and ruling out lots of things.  They thought maybe it was her appendix, but its not. Now they think its cause her right ovary is still so large cause of the over stimulation that it is twisting causing less blood flow to the ovary.  this is causing it to get even bigger.  Now, I know these drugs are somewhat risky for the fetus's.  She is carrying twins.  But I want to know if anyone else has been in this situation?  Maybe taken these drugs with their pregnancy?  We, her family are just nervous.

Thanks so much for the well wishes!!  Really appreciated!!  She had surgery today.  They found that her inflamed ovary was twisted which was slowing the blood flow to the ovary.  so far the fetus's look ok.  they looked at them pre and post surgery and the heartbeats are good and strong.  the only negative is that her blood count is a bit low.  they are going to take another look at that tomorrow.  so, we have a little relief now!!  thanks!!
