Emotional Rollercoaster

This is probably going to be long, but I thought I'd share in case anyone is going through something similar. I went to the ER on Sunday after having brown spotting for a week which turned into red bleeding. They did a pelvic exam, 2 u/s (abdominal/transvag), and bloodwork. After laying there for 3 hours they came back to tell me that I had a UTI and they "thought" they saw a sac on the u/s but weren't sure. They sent me off with paperwork, which to me read that I was most likely having an ectopic pg. They told me to go get b/w done at my dr on yesterday to see if my levels were going up or down and go from there.

One of the drs at the office just called me freaking out that I was supposed to make an appt to see a dr yesterday, not just get b/w done. He sounded like I was probably dying and asked if I was in pain. Nope, no pain... didn't have pain when I went to the ER or since then. Well, I already have an appt scheduled for tomorrow with my dr (my first prenatal appt). So after I told him I had an appt scheduled he calmed down and told me that my HCG levels had doubled in the last 24 hours, but since it was done at different labs.. yadda yadda yadda.

I don't know who to blame for putting me on this emotional rollercoaster, but since the dr at the ER seemed convinced I was having a tubal pg with no actual proof... I blame him. As if us pg ladies don't have enough anxiety without added stress from drs!

I just pray they see something on the u/s tomorrow morning. Thanks for reading, I just needed to vent to someone since we haven't told anyone yet!
