Does anyone know of a woman going through an entire pregnancy after sustaining a BPI? (Not pregnant at the time of injury, but getting pregnant in the time soon afterwards.) I'm curious as to how the spinal cord injury and pain effects the possibility of pregnancy and childbirth. I know that Neurotin, the most essential of pain medications for some of us, is also used for epilepsy, so some women are required to take it while pregnant. If anyone could share their experiences or those of friends or family, I would appreciate the information. Thanks.
