I'm sorry - I hope this is OK but I need someone / somewhere to vent.
Yesterday I had my U/S to confirm no tissue has been retained.
I get in and she looks at me and says, "You're 11 weeks pregnant?"
I said no, I had a miscarriage. I am not 11 weeks pregnant.
She says, "well your paperwork says your LMP was Sept 29th."
I said yes, but I had a miscarriage.
Then she says, "well no one told me."
Honestly - that's what she said... No sorry about the mixup, no sorry this happened to you...
Anyway we move on...
The T/V U/S was the most uncomfortable of my life. I just lay there bawling my eyes out and she was such a bitch. She kept saying open your legs wider, and then eventually literally took her elbows and forced them apart.
I went out to reception afterwards and complained to the receptionist who took me into the lunch room so I could have some privacy while I relived the story and my ordeal. At least this woman was kind. She let me tell what happened, then hugged me and stroked my hair while apologizing as I was sobbing like a baby.
I hope this tech gets fired so no one else goes through this. It was seriously one of the worst parts of this whole ordeal.
