I got a flu shot in Nov 2006, a couple days later I got a little cold and lost my sense of smell. Found out I was pregnant 3 weeks later. Could not smell for entire pregnancy, sneezed about 40 times a day with severe congestion and had to blow my nose at least 50 times a day (I counted). 3 months after baby still no change went to ENT who said I had the worst case of inflammed adenoids he'd ever seen and put me on steroids, singulair, nasonex and clarinase.
I also have stuffy nose at night. I use nasonex but it doesn't help at all. Did anyone else experience this while they're pregnant? Will it get any better? Please let me know. I haven't slept for weeks. I am so frustrated.
About 6 years ago I took Nasonex for a few weeks. Soon after I started using it I noticed that every time I bent over water started pouring from my nose. After I discontinued using the product, it seemed to go away. It just started happening again out of the blue. I was bending over to feed the cats and I felt the water pouring out of my nose (which was slightly salty), I thought at first it was a nose bleed. I am not taking any meds, but I am 19 weeks pregnant.
And prescribed me Albuterol for my asthma, an antihestimine for my allergies and nasonex for my sinuses and sed that that the combination should clear up my sinus problems and hopefully alleviate my headaches. But as a precautionary step She ran blood test for HIV/AIDS HEP A/B/C a liver panal kidney panal and a thyroid panal and white blood cell count she also checked my blood suger. All test apparently came back normal.
You state, “Now every time I get any cold or any sickness I develop a chronic cough that can last many months.” The onset of your chronic cough during pregnancy was most likely fortuitous but the onset or emergence of asthma during pregnancy is not rare. Another possibility could be recurrent aspiration, with or without the persistence of a foreign body within one of your airways that could intermittently cause cough and yet not be evident on a standard X-ray.
I am taking Loratidine and also use Nasonex for mild seasonal allergies. I was tested as a child and all that surfaced was mild reactions to house dust and corn. I lived in the Atlanta area for a while and the pollen problem there (a nightmare) is what spawned the used of allergy meds. Pollen count in my current place of residence (back where I grew up) is much less.
knows we are trying and prescribed Rhinocort nasal spray. Said it's safe to use during pregnancy. I've also tried Zyrtec, Allegra, Nasonex, Claritin, Flonase...the list goes on and on... and I like Rhinocort the best of any of these. I personally hate nasal sprays as I would much rather take a pill, but it works much better than anything I've tried so far. Hope that helps!!
YOu may want to consider seeing an endodontist who treats root canals under the microscope especially considering your pregnancy-- the last thing you want is an abcessed or problematic tooth to deal with at this time.
I take zyrtec and it is available otc now. I took this during my pregnancy w/ my son and now with ds #2 i am taking it as well. I have asthma and this has kept my allergies under control and my asthma has been pretty good too. benadryl makes me tired and does nothing for me. I need something that i can take everyday.
about 10 weeks ago i woke up dizzy and didnt know why, it was my sister wedding and i thought maybe just nerves. i took sea sick meds (wedding was on a yacht) and it helped a little bit. after another few weeks it didnt go away and it scared me so much that i didnt want to go anywhere thinking i would get dizzy. I went to my GP and she looked and said i looked fine, called for blood work and told me to go to a neurologist. blood work came back NORMAL.
Also - check with your dr first (as always), but Sudafed and Tylenol are both approved for anytime during your pregnancy. I used Sudafed a lot with my first pregnancy and am already taking it with this one since it's now fall and the molds are coming out like crazy! Good luck!
5 yrs ago I started to have severe nose congestions. This started when I was 3 months pregnant. My doctor said it was due to pregnancy and said not to do anything for it. Well, I did and began using nasal spray (afrin) several times a day because I was so badly congested I couldnt sleep oro breath and was going insane. I thought it would all end after having the baby. It did not. I live with my nose spray. Have it in all my bags and in the bedroom. I use it several times a day still.
Iv had PSD when i was pregnant both times and at times it feels like that (if you know what that is) its when the hormones in pregnancy make the muscle surrounding the pubis bone relax and part more then it should making the whole groin and hip area unstabble, i could not walk at the end of my pregnacy. The pain is in my hips and they pop its in my back and into my pubic bone.
I TALKED TO MY DOCTOR ABOUT IT BUT HE DOESNT SEEM CONCERNED.. I AM USING NASONEX, CLARITIN, ADVAIR, SINGULAR FOR MY ALLERGIES AND ASTHMA. I ALSO TAKE CELEBREX AND ZOLOFT. NOW I CANT SMELL AT ALL NOT EVEN AFTER ANTIBIOTICS OR STEROID MEDS. IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING. I HAVE ASTHMA AND CANT TELL IF I AM SMELLING SOMETHING THAT WOULD IRRITATE ME. I CANT SMELL IF THERE IS A FIRE OR SOMETHING BURNING...ANYONE OUT THERE WITH THIS PROBLEM AND DID YOU FIND SOMETHING TO FIX IT...
I had a eye exam - normal, MRI and CAT scan again - normal except the sinusitus. Have been taking nasonex and topomax. It has been better over the last several months but last Monday they came back with a vengence. I had a headache all over that was different adn wouldn't respond to topomax or anything. Over the course of last week, I also started to have a sense of fullness and ringing in my right ear - mainly at night. I could also feel my heartbeat in that ear.
::: vent :::::: along with your post ... I used to be able to take pediatric dosing of Sudafed + Tylenol with a cold/sinus and now all the otc meds have this other drug in it caled phenyl...... (not sure on spelling) and it makes me VERY VERY TIRED and jittery .. nice, huh? If you cannot use Afrin what about one of the nasal sprays that are prescription like Flonase or Nasacort . I know they are steroids but for use when ill may work .. they do help my daughters with severe allergies.
But don't need much for medication but a sample bottle of Nasonex to get through the season. I have no idea what being ill would do to my symptoms.
I have started to experience morning nausea two weeks ago on a Monday (no possiblity of pregnancy). Every day was the same and Wednseday night I started to feel a little pressure in the head with a frontal headache. Since Wednesday the pressure in my head stayed constant until Sunday and Monday night I was not able to sleep because of that pressure, also accompanied with nose stuffiness and severe fatigue. I immediately though it was another sinus infection.
I hope this goes away after I have the baby. I don't know how it is related to my pregnancy but that is when I started having problems.
Bromfenex seemed to help a little, but it's extended release, so it puts me into a zombie state. Astelin made me feel bad, and Nasonex works for two seconds. My humidifier stuffed me up even more. I'm looking into trying a Z-Pack, and will be drinking just lukewarm water and hot teas until summertime. I wish you both and everyone else SO much luck with this.
It was normal with a little cloudiness in her sinus cavity so he said it must be a sinus infection. 875mg of amoxil 2x a day for 21 days and Nasonex. She has no drainage, not even a sniffle. A week later symptoms are still there and she has now missed 2 weeks of school so I call back and suggest blood work, all of it comes back normal. He says he hears a lot of noise from her bowels/stomach so she should see a gastroenterologist.
I've used the nasal spray, which will wash out what ever is bothering me, but I still get no relief. I'm using Nasonex, which has been like using nothing. I used Flonase in the past. Same thing. I'm on Benadryl all the time, otherwise I would have an itchy runny nose, sneezing, plus this sinus pain. I can't take ANYTHING for pain. I've been dealing with a kidney issue, so NSAIDs are out. I'm allergic to Tylenol, and I'm allergic to all opiates.
Still have this problem and per ENT's orders recently started systematically taking Zyrtec-D, Nasonex and Singulair (at bedtime) along with daily Grossan adaptor saline irrigation. In 2004 diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (underactive thyroid); caught it early and started taking med. with no problem. Still had some tinnitus. Pregnancy in 2007 during which time thyroid med. was gradually doubled to 100 mcg daily. Late term miscarriage (due to chromosomal problems).
I have been dizzy now for almost 2 months, and my doctor has given me nasonex and allegra. I haven't started the allegra yet, but my symptoms are getting worse. The dizzyness is almost all of the time, and especially bad if I move to quick and from sitting to standing. Headaches are getting worse, hard to get rid of. I have had blood work and an exam, and all the Dr. noticed was that my nasal passages were extremely dry. Everything else has checked out great.
>I'll take a doctor who says "I don't know" over one that makes a snap diagnosis any day.< Me too! I am not looking for a quick diagnosis or fix either from my doctor. Simply, honesty and willingness to investigate. If it takes many months...so be it. I would be content with that. I have a good feeling with my new doctor. Relaxed, totally unhurried and seemingly unmoved by what I say, in a good way. >Don't feel bad about switching doctors - this is YOUR health and YOUR life.
I also read research that states that a mother‘s defficient thyroid function during the pregnancy can influence the neurological development of the fetus. I suspect that in my case my low thyroid function may possibly have had a significant influence on my sons neurological immaturity and their manifestation of ADHD symptoms. But this is something I still need to research a little further.
I keep reminding myself that it won't be as bad after I give birth, just like it was after my first pregnancy. I also know that I have had some trouble due to the heat. Being hot and dehydrated do seem to really set my ears off, and for me, even though the drinking water helped sometimes, it doesn't seem to be helping now. When I went to my last prenatal appt though, the OB said my urine showed that I was a little dehydrated, so I'm sure I should be drinking more.
