I have three blood mutations: Protein S, Factor V Leiden, and MTHFR. I also carry the cystic fibrosis gene. Does anyone else have these?

  • I have MTHFR! I've been taking rx folic acid for it since I found out/before I got pregnant.

  • Are they putting you on a therapeutic dose of Lovenox? I have Factor V and am in a prophylactic dose of Lovenox daily. Does the father of the baby carry the CF gene also?
  • I have Factor V Leiden. I am TTC and taking 40 mg of Lovenox daily.

    I just found out I have mthfr.. i didn't realize there were so many different forms of it so I'm confused. Dr prescribed folgard 2.2. Said to take 2 a day along with prenatal. I see alot of comments about blood thinners and baby aspirin. Any advice ?? Sounds like I need to ask my dr some more questions. ....
