Hi mummies,
I m so lost n helpless now. I jus wanna share my feeling n would appreciate some advises fm u.
I jus did my Oscar on Tue n my gynae called me to tell me that i m at risk n suggested a amnio test on 25th Jan. She said e passing pt should be 1 to 300 while for my case its 1 to 227. She said e scan shows very positive result n e risk is reduced to 1 to 500 but my blood test result increases e risk to 1 to 227.
If i were to take e amnio test, there is a 1% risk of miscarriage and i will have to wait for 4 more wks to take e test n e test result will only come out 2 to 3 wks later. Meaning i will have to stay this worried, lost n helpless for almost 2mths.
1) Should i take e amnio test? Is e result accurate?
2) May i know what is "Triple Blood Test"? Was it e blood test taken on e same day as e Oscar scan.
3) May i know what is Chorionic Villus Sampling? Is there any risk for this test? Is e result similar to amnio test?
4) I understand there are e express test result n e normal test result but my gynae suggested e normal one as she said e result is more detailed n more tests are involved but it takes 2-3 wks. Is there any detailed test but yet i can have e result in jus 2 to 3 days?
5) May i know what is TR?
6) Does the DS possibility affects heart as well? Cos my family have a few members w/ this problem.
Sorry for so many questions but would really appreciate it if u could advise on any that u know of.
