Hi - have found you before you've found me!
I have been diagnosed with very high NK cells by Dr.Shehata - my thyroid was fine though, so can't help you with that one, I'm afraid.
Am currently 6 weeks pg, and am taking 40mg prenisolone daily, aswell as aspirin and progesterone. I had an intralipid infusion at 4 wks and will be having another at 8 wks - this coats the NK cells to stop them attcking the pg.
I'm hoping this will work - I've had 4 mc's previously, and I've got to get past 9-10 weeks, as I lost 2 at this point in pg, so maybe that's the real danger point for me. However, I feel like I have given this my best shot - all tests on the NHS came back clear, and there was no other route for me. As soon as I researched NK cells, it just made sense to me that this would be the cause of my mc's.
I got pg the first month of trying too, whicih is not bad for a 39 year old! DH and I have both been trying to be healthy for the past 6 months, and have taken vitamins aswell. We were just trying everything really.
So, I'm not out of the woods yet - I hope to be a success story, but the next few weeks are crucial.
The medication hasn't been a problem either - any symptoms could be pg symptoms, and I start weaning off the steroids at 9 weeks, so you aren't on them for long.
I was reeling when Dr.S gave me my diagnosis, but it did sink in, and it was a relief to have found a possible solution.
If there's anything else you want to ask me, fire away!
