My WritingsDebra Verville (668)    Many Pregnant Women Not Getting H1N1 VaccinePosted Tuesday, November 03, 2009 (20 days 10 hours ago.) Viewed 161 times. As we are all well aware the H1N1/Swine Flu has been all over the media. This is a virus that we all hope does not hit our families. Doctors across the nation are recommending that patients get the vaccine as soon as it becomes available. Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center has just written a post on the tubal reversal blog about the H1N1/Swine flu and why women who are pregnant or trying to conceive should get the vaccine. One of the most alarming facts is that a person can get both the H1N1/Swine flu and the seasonal flu at the same time. I cannot even imagine how bad this could be. The virus seems to be hitting both pregnant women and children especially hard. I was recently reading an article on how many pregnant women are choosing not to get the vaccine. It has been proven with the seasonal flu vaccine that if the mother gets vaccinated while pregnant the fetus builds up an immunity thus making it safer after birth. An infant cannot be vaccinated for the flu until after three months of age. A recent news release by the HHS showed that pregnant women receiving the H1N1 had a dramatic rise in immunity toward the virus. The H1N1 vaccine has been well tolerated by the individuals receiving the single dose. This is good news as we have already had 28 deaths of pregnant women here in the United States. If a woman chooses to get the vaccine she not only chooses to protect herself but her child. Newborns have little immunity except for what is passed to them by the mother. This is not counting the fact if the mother contracts this virus while she is still pregnant. High fevers have been known to cause problems with the developing fetus. And if the mother is not well her immune system is already stressed due to being pregnant and this alone can make her more susceptible to getting sick. Will you be getting the vaccine? If not, could you share the reasons? We are all trying to learn what is the best thing to do. 
Permalink Comments (2) Blocked Tubes After Tubal Reversal SurgeryPosted Wednesday, October 21, 2009 (33 days 9 hours ago.) Viewed 17 times. Many women are now choosing to have tubal reversal surgery after tubal ligation instead of the alternative of IVF. Not only is tubal reversal surgery less expensive it has a better overall pregnancy rate. But what happens if the fallopian tubes block after surgery? This is a huge question among women who are researching tubal reversal surgery or those who have already had it and are not conceiving right away. Many times the tubes may not be blocked but it is one of the first things that come to mind. Blocked tubes can happen after tubal reversal surgery. This is one of the things that can happen and for a surgeon to tell you that it won't happen is not right. What the leading tubal reversal surgeon gives for advice is to wait a year and if you still have not conceived then have a test called a Hysterosalpingogram (HSG). What this does is check the tubes with a dye to make sure there is no blockage in the fallopian tubes. The problem with the HSG is that many times the person performing the test is not reading the results right or one of the fallopian tubes will spasm and the dye will not pass through the right way thus being read as a blockage. Dr. Berger and Dr. Monteith of Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center have seen inaccurate results on a regular basis. The first thing they do is when they hear from a tubal reversal patient stating she has had the HSG a and the results are showing blocked tubes is to have the results sent to them right away. Many times the test results are inconclusive thus giving the wrong results. Many times the tubal reversal patients are in shock when they do not feel right to find out they are pregnant after being told there was no chance of conceiving. The main thing to remember is that if you have had tubal reversal surgery and are told you have blocked tubes this may not be the case at all. All too many women have given up hope and thrown in the towel only to find out their dreams are about to come true. If you are researching tubal reversal surgery it would do you good to have a look at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center's website and read the vast amount of information and have a look at the videos. Tubal reversal surgery is a huge decision and the better educated a person is the better-informed decision that can be made.
