Praying all goes well for you :)

I did the genetic tests because my obgyn was worried about my baby's thick Nuchal Fold. Prior to that I only did blood tests with Dr Vasoo. We were advised by my geneticist that it depends on the genetic issue, if any. Some chromosomes are of unknown variant, means doctors do not know how, if...

At public hospitals, under govt subsidy, you will need to have gone through 3 consecutive miscarriages or more than one (at the very least), or unless you have very good reason to, you'd be referred to the High Risk Clinic, and only then they will offer/advice you to go through karyotyping etc...

of course. sending you hugs ❤

FYI, Dr Vasoo is a rheumatologist while Prof Choolani is obgyn

Hello Prof Choolani, back in 2020, had stopped taking in new patients due to COVID. Dr Vasoo is no longer at the clinic, she is currently in private practice, running her own clinic at Mt E Novena. Btw, they are/were both at NUH, not KKH. Prof Biswas is a good alternative to Prof Choolani...

maybe a genetic test might help.

we are here for you. you are not alone. hugs.

presently her repeat consult is 150sgd before GST. Let me hint for my first invoice from her. my first set of blood tests, testing for autoimmune disorders etc cost about 1k SGD plus.

another vote for Dr. Vasoo - she's super nice and I too was/am on aspirin + prednisolone (immunosuppressant).

missed miscarriage is when the body does not realised there is no longer a live sac/fetus.

it is what is called a missed miscarriage

I agree with origorig. an early pregnancy loss usually is attributed to chromosomal or genetic issues... the hormones remain in your body for some time still, so that could be the reason for your then ongoing symptoms. its not easy. hugs

Yes I did. I saw a rheumatologist who had me tested for a whole range of autoimmune related disorders and conditions. Came back with low Protein S and elevated NK cells. However, i recently saw a geneticist and Prof. Biswas (both from NUH) who instead said I should have gone for karyotyping...
