Your doctor is being ridiculous and lazy. It is not your responsibility to know what you can take during pregnancy. I'd find another doctor right away. Do you see a rheumotologist? You can go to the National Fibromyalgia Association website and ask them for a referral to a fibro-friendly and hopefully better informed physician. I'm sure there is medication that you can take during pregnancy but a doctor needs to determine wehat that might be. Take care.

A final thought - you can go to a pain specialist to see what they would recommend. Take care.

I have found Tylenol and B6 to be helpful. Both have been recommended by my ob and rheumotologist. Definitely find a good physician! It will be well worth it!
