TTC After a Loss

Worried Sick

I have a consult tomorrow to help us figure out our next steps with having a rainbow baby. I had been feeling pretty optimistic about the appointment. This is not with a regular OB.  The OB who did my D&C, who has terrible bedside manner since my D&C, is the one who ordered all my lab work. I posted yesterday about my unclear Lupus screening results and had emailed him to ask him more about it. I also asked what other tests were ordered that I hadn't gotten back yet. His response to me was along the lines of "We should talk in person about the results. We have some topics to discuss." Well he knew that I had an appt with a different doctor tomorrow morning. Now I am a total ball of nerves about this appointment. I know that I am totally overreacting and it could be that something came back abnormal OR it could be that everything came back normal and he meant that we should discuss some preventative options, but it just did not ease my worry getting a response like that from him, especially since he didn't even sort of address my questions. I just want tomorrow to come already! I just HATE not knowing anything.

 

Thanks for listening, as always!!

    I'm so sorry! I know that sometimes when Dr's want to explain things in person, it's just because they want to show you some diagrams or anatomy models (visual aids). I wouldn't read too much into it. We'll be thinking of you tomorrow! What time do you go in? I will note the time and send you extra positive vibes.

  • I'm so that you have to experience this worry and concern.  I had all kinds of tests run after my 2nd loss. At my ob appointment post d&c she said that the only # that came back abnormal would indicate lupus but quickly followed that comment with you don't have that. I thought to myself how do you know that?  I read other posts and think why didn't you just ask the doctor?  At the time all I could think was the last time I was here I saw my baby with no gnome and I want out of here.  Now I'm just searching for answers no matter where it leads. I hope you get answers and you'll be in our T&p. Keep us posted.

    I'm sorry that his e-mail didn't explain anything.  This might just be my bitterness regarding doctors, but maybe he just didn't want to type out a long answer and figured if he told you he wanted to talk in person that he could just go over it then.  I am truly hoping that's not the case, but I have had some pretty awful doctors/staff that have tap-danced around my questions and it turned out they just hadn't had time to review my results yet. 

    I am hoping that he can give you some answers and solutions, please try not to worry too much (( Hugs )).  Good luck tomorrow, keep us posted!

    I am sorry. That would drive me absolutely crazy.  I really hate vague suspenseful responses.  He could have at least given you some directions. I will be sending you good vibes.  I hope your new doctor is a million times better.

  • Hopefully, whatever the news is isn't anything serious, and it's easy to fix. I hate you're scared sweetheart, but please try not to worry until you know what they're going to tell you. (Easier said than done, I know.)

    Thinking of you.

    We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.
