Confused...

After bleeding for two days, not heavy at all.  I went to the ER last night, things are not looking great.  My hormone level is down. 

I am so confused and pissed at the same time.  I called my OBGYN 8 times since last Sunday.  I went in last Wednesday, I had an ultrasound then, it was too soon to tell but things were in tact.  Dr did see a sac, but no fetal pole.  They never drew blood or anything.  I called and I called bc I was concerned about the bleeding.  I was blown off several times, and told some bleeding was normal, if you are not cramping its nothing.  There were no appointments when I called to make one, so they had me talk to the nurse.  Finally, last night I had to ease my mind after passing tissue, and things are not looking great.  The Dr last night was not even certain if I am actually miscarrying.  Well, she did not seem convincing.  She seemed very hesitant to say anything.  I have an appt tomorrow to do another ultra sound and blood work to check the level.  I am kinda bummed that I was blown off by the OB numerous times.  I am mad at myself for not being persistent enough, which I thought I was by calling for reassurance, assistance, and telling them what was going on several times. 

I am just completely bummed, and exhausted...

Re: Confused...

  • I'm so sorry that you had such. Bad experience with your OB. It's never ok to make a patient feel disregarded maybe time to look for a new OB? Wishing you the best.

  • I am so sorry that this is happening to you.  This is almost exactly what happened to me when I miscarried -- could not reach my doctor, so I went to the ER, they did a pelvic exam and an external ultrasound and insisted I was fine (without really telling me anything), and I went home and miscarried that night.  I was so frustrated with my doctor's absence that I have chosen to go with a midwife this time around.  I wish you the best!
