This may have already been discussed. However, given the number of young women who have been diagnosed with KLS, its affect on pregnancy seems a reasonable topic of research. I have had three successful pregnancies with no symptoms of KLS (two during a period of remission). If KLS were mainly hormonal, one might expect some kind of KLS activity. I spoke with one other young woman diagnosed with KLS who said she did not experience any KLS symptoms during her pregnancy either. (I know, this is a very small sample based on anecdotal “evidence”). Of course, I experienced all of the “pickle” cravings, which I understand are a result of the pregnant body craving salt in order to stimulate an increase in blood supply to support the fetus. Would an increased blood supply “ward off” any diminishment of blood circulating in the brain of the pregnant female? Would hormones contained in the blood of pregnant women also enhance the network of blood vessels guaranteeing that all of the body’s blood vessels are prepared to accept blood? What protects an average pregnant woman from deadly increases in blood pressure?  I’m sure the idea of blood transfusions during KLS episodes has been theoretically discussed. However, it’s intriguing to wonder if carefully administered “transfusions” of donated blood from pregnant women (or laboratory created facsimile) would stop or protect against KLS? I’m sorry this reads like a cheap horror novel, but I don’t know how else to ask these questions.
