Humira while pregnant
Oct 03, 2008 09:01AM in the Crohn's Disease / Ulcerative Colitis Community
Hi akay, Congratulations on your beautiful, healthy baby girls! And thank you so much for the post. My daughter-in-law's sister has 2 children, too, and has had Crohn's for quite a while. Her first pregnancy went great, but her second was pretty trying. I believe that she went off her Remicade while pregnant with her 2nd child. She had to have a porti...
Humira and Pregnancy

Just had a question. Has anyone on here been on Humira while pregnant? If so, did you remain on Humira during the entire pregnancy, or what did you Dr. suggest? Thanks!

Sorry, one more thing. If you have absessed teeth, that can be dangerous, so I don't know how the charity clinic can deny even pulling those, and giving you antibiotics? Did you check with the Dept. of Social Services in your area, to see if they have any suggestions? Don't know if medicaid treats dental problems for adults, or just kids, but it's worth a ...

I'm sorry about your teeth. I think that Liz1958 had a great idea, if you have a university dental school in your area.

I'm currently having about $4500 worth of work done on my teeth, and was able to...
my sister needs surgery and disability no insurance

Maybe you should try www.ama-assn.org, as they have a contact us area that you can explain your sister's situation and see what they say. It's the web site for the American Medical Association, and I would sure think they'd know. And like I said, I'd contact the DSS in her area, too. Good luck, and please keep us posted!

I'm sorry that your sister is having such a hard time. I live in SD, but to my knowledge, they can't refuse you medical treatment anywhere if you need treatment. My oldest son has juvenile diabetes, is 35, and I know he has over $500,000 in medical bills from surgeries, etc., and no insurance, but both hospitals here have never denied him treatment. I wish...
