So pissed off...

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

I went to the dr yesterday for my post d and c.  She told me they would have the tissue sampling back from pathology, which is really my main reason of going since I am so done with this office as it is.

She leaves as we get there- patient in labor.  Fine- another dr can talk to me about my results right?  Well- yeah, but pathology never faxed them over.  Why?  We never asked them to.  Why? No answer- just dumb looks.  So they call- they fax over 45 min later- other dr calls us in- says it was chromosomal- no info on babies sex- but it says "See attached"- GUESS WHAT- nothing attached!  They didn't fax the whole report.  So we waited another half hour for the rest of the report to come- he calls us back in.  Oh- wait- now I see it says no info on the fetuses- they could not grow a sampling (either the tissue was to degenerated or something).  The chromosomal defect is on the placenta tissue-  WTF does that mean.  HE doesn't know- he doesn't understand the report- he needs a geneticist to interpret my results.  Are you kidding me?  I don't even know what to think any of that means...He was basically lying to us when he read the first page. 

Why does the hell seem to cont for so many of us when we deserve to skip pass all this other BS?  I just wanted closure- even if it was inconclusive- but this is just more confusion.

 Anyone?

    I'm really sorry.  I had a similar thing happen, it is so maddening.  I will never understand after we suffer something so terrible as a loss, can't we at least be given the healing of finding out what happened to our babies?  I'm really very sorry, I hope they can tell you something.

    ugh, what a sucky experience for you! gah! i'm angry FOR you! i'm angry that you had to waste all that time for nothing! at least if they told you straight out, right away that they didn't have your results, you could at least get pissed and storm out of there. but noooo. they kept you waiting just to feed you a big helping of bs. stupid stupid stupid.

    but it does seem as if at least you know something chromosomal happened, in either the formation of the fetuses (fetusi?) or in the development of the placenta. i hope they can give you a little more clarity soon!

    I'm sorry.  It seems that your OB's knowledge of this might be limited so I'm glad it sounds like he is going to refer you to/consult with a specialist.  The waiting is the hardest part.  I was told so many different possibilities with my first loss it was maddening and felt like I was looking for the golden egg.  Even with today's advances, since then I've accepted that medicine is sometimes an art or process of elimination not a science.  I hope you get some answers and closure soon.
