Hi, I'm 40, 7 weeks and in a bad way. Had severe reaction to metaclopromide and was hospitalised with full body spasms on Thursday. Now out and getting strength back but sickness back with a vengeance. Gp recommended cyclizine instead, whereas hospital said cyclizine could trigger a similar reaction and recommended onastradon (sp). Apparently the onastradon is not tested in pregnancy. Another doctor again recommended Cyclizine for safety which I know is more common.
I'm terrified of having another adverse reaction or harming the bean but am struggling to cope with the sickness (am self employed and the main source of income so can't be signed off work)
I was given multiple shots of procycladine when in the trauma unit which is also not tested, but my spasms were so severe they were restricting my breathing and said it was too dangerous to leave me untreated. I don't want to take anything that further risks this.
I'm frightened and confused. What are your experiences of cyclizine? Have any of you had onastradon?
Sorry I'm rambling. Advice so very welcome X
