I was diognised with auto immune hepatitis 6 months ago. My doctor started treatment with 50mg azathioprine. It didn't work so he added 10mg prednisone.  After 2 mths on both medication I found out I was expecting, the doctor stopped the prednisone but increased azathioprine to 100mg.  Am wondering whats the danger to my unborn baby?also recently I started itching badly and also my blood work results are not getting better.  Is there anyone who has had the same problem?

Thanks so much. I have another question, did you carry your son to term..My obg/gyn has told me I may have an early delivery, may be seven months.  Am only 5 months now.  Also what did you take for the itching. I have been taking Urso 100mg and its not working.

Once again thank you and God bless you.

My son had to take 30mg of prednisone and the azathiorprine for months, as it takes awhile for the azathiorprine to kick in.  The DR also told us he may never fully come off the prednisone.  Zac also get rashes from the azathiorprine.  He is only 9.
