NK Cells
Hi ladies.
I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with NK cells.
I'll try to make this as short as possible!
I started seeing Dr. Kofinas at 9 weeks and he found that I had MTHFR Gene Polymorphism - Homozygous, PAI-1 Gene Polymorphism - Heterozygous and ACE Gene Mutation - Homozygous. He put me on Lovenox twice a day, Metanyx, baby aspirin, Eskimo-3 fish oil, N-Acetyl-Cysteine, Pearl IC, Gentle Iron, Calcium and Vitamin D.
I went back last week and the ultrasound showed that my placenta is healing but it's not as healed as Dr. K would like it to be at this point. He said that one of my numbers regarding my placenta was low and suggested I do a blood test for NK cells which I just found out came back positive. I'm going to be taking Prenisone and doing an intralipid infusion every 2 weeks starting next week.
Anyone have any feed back with this condition? I'm super nervous and hoping that we found it early enough to correct it.

I had the same thing and did they same treatment as you. Mine corrected itself with the treatment. I only had to have 4 infusions.

I also went to Kofinas and tested positive for the NK killer cells. I had the intralipid infusion and the prendisone. The infusion is easy, no big deal. A nurse comes to the house for two hours, easy. I didn't like the prendisone, I was up at 4AM every night but it wasn't that bad during the day. I wasn't running around like a maniac on steroids. You are in good hands with Dr. K, good luck to you.

Re: NK Cells
I have the same thing and see Dr. Kofinas as well. I'm on all the same supplements plus I took prednisone and did the intralipid infusions. My placenta and blood flow improved significantly with the treatments! Dr. Kofinas is amazing!
