???
I am wondering at what "avenue" to travel. 12-05 I had a miscarriage w/ alot of pain, huge blood clots and a cycle that lasted for two weeks. 5-27-06 I found out I was pregnant again, this time the "spotting" started almost a week later. I called the Dr's office and they told me that there was nothing that could be done, and again I told them I was scared and nervous. I waited a few days and could not sleep, went to work as usuall, the spotting almost stopped then started again. So again I called the office, I received the same reaction with no alternative or nothing to calm me down,like a visit.
Finally I felt I needed peace of mind and went to the ER . They took some blood, urine and did a exam. The good news was that my spotting was normal, my cervix was closed. The blood test came back that I was pregnant, but my HCG levels were low to where they should have been. I was sent home with a order for a ultrasound, and a diagnosis of threatned miscarriage.
The very next day I called the Dr's office explaining the events of the trip to the ER. One of the staff that answered the phone stated that I could have miscarried even with my cervix closed and if I pass anything that I should take "it" to the lab and have it analyzed. And then this person stated "How do you know that you were even pregnant anyway?" This person even told me that there was noway that I would get into see the Dr. that day. And I felt myself just see what little of a chance slip away for this pregnancy also. One of my co-workers the only one who knew what was going on took the phone from me and proceeded to tell this person that I and my husband needed some peice of mind, how I was slipping into depression and was very short with folks at work.
Within a few minutes I had a appointment and was told that the lab had faxed over the results of the urine test. There was blood in my urine and bacteria. I live in a rural community and the Dr's office was 80 mles away. To make a long story short the ultrasound showed nothing and I never received any medication for the bacteria. Only valium for not being able to stop crying. During the ultrasound the same person made one comment about myself not being pregnant. The Dr made a comment and that was it. It has been three weeks since, my cycle has not started, the things that I was told would happen haven't, I am sick in the morning like my stomach is upset. On 6-18-06 I took a Home pregnancy test and it came up positive. I refuse to go back to that office. And I am scared now what may come from another Dr's visit. Same verbal abuse? Not caring atmosphere? Or for my health just go? What are the chances of still being pregnant? I have mixed feelings about this. Am I going to ruin my chances on getting pregnant again? Baby dust to all ten times fold.
And God bless.
