Hi ladies, start of a new work week, sian! But at least the haze seems to be over.
Had an eventful few days, remember I told u ladies my period went on n on for 12 days n my bleeding picked up on Thurs, so I went in for an urgent blood test on Thurs, my gynae didn't think very much of it, gave me antibiotics n 7 days of Nor E pills, which upon completion will induce another period 2-3 days after, so as to reset my cycle. Then on Fri, she called me n said my hcg is still 10.9, which doesn't make sense cos everything should have come out w my period, n suddenly told me I need a dnc afterall! I was so confused n upset, cos it has been 7 whole weeks n countless follow up visits since my miscarriage. So my colleague told me to seek a second opinion w her gynae, n they were nice enough to squeeze me in that same afternoon. The doc scanned me, n was shocked to see ALOT of product of conception inside my uterus, he could not understand how my usual gynae could scan me 3 times over the last month n declared me clear each time. So anyway, I went in for a dnc on Sat, it was so much more pleasant than inserting cytotec pills, no pain, mild cramps for only 30 mins after, n the bleeding stopped by that evening. By afternoon I was shopping at Parkway Parade already. Aiya, I super regret not opting for dnc right fr the start, wasted so much time n kena infection somemore. The gynae said there was a lot of embryonic tissue, much more than he expected, so he sent it off to the lab for a histology report, hopefully they don't find anything abnormal. So, hopefully, this miscarriage nightmare is really over this time.
