Will be happy to: But... You are taking fastin, (phentermine) which is not a good idea when you are pregnant. Also, Lisinopril is a category c drug, clear danger to the baby., your doctor is right.

Of course.: What condition do you have that puts you at high risk? Trusting god is critical for all believers, but god doesn't promise us that we get what we want. Make sure your doctor has clearly explained what risks you face from a pregnancy and the reasons why they recommend not conceiving.

Prayers: While I do believe in prayer, you're asking a forum of doctors to pray for a situation that they have no knowledge of. Ob/gyn doctors have at least 8 years of education in medical decision making, if not 20+ years. If your doctors have recommended against pregnancy is it because you could lose your life? A 2nd opinion might help you better understand your situation. Be smart, stay alive.

Sorry: If your doctors think it's a bad idea, god isn't likely to prove them wrong.
