I have recently been diagnosed with Severe Insulin resistance, MitroValve Prolapse, and High Blood Pressure (I mean extremely high!) My husband and I are extremely eager to have children. But none of my doctors will tell me whether or not it is possible or if it is a good idea for me to do so. When the question arises, they tell me let's get a handle on the problem at hand and deal with the pregnancy part after the others are under control. My insulin resistance had cause my ovaries to shut down and cease to function. Until one month ago, they had not worked AT ALL in over a year. But for the past 2 months, after taking large doses of RX, I was able to have periods.
I understand their theory on the matter, to no get ahead of themselves. But I am not talking about getting pregnant immediately, but I would like to know if it is possible. And if it is possible to get pregnant, what risks does the HBP and MVP pose for me or the baby? Please help! I am so lost!
