D&C- advice please!

[mazza2003]

I had a MC two over 2 weeks ago and am showing very stong HPT and OPK. I am still bleeding too. Some times heavy, sometimes light.

My hormones are the worst they have been in the 2 weeks today- I have spots, headaches and am teary (not about the MC particulary but stupid things like eastenders!)

I want the nightmare to be over. Would a D&C sort this?

So sorry for your loss hon. I had an erpc (D&C) as soon as I found out about my mmc. Apart from being devastated and heartbroken, I haven't felt hormonally emotional, just normal emotional if that makes sense. I couldn't tell you if its because of the erpc or because of the way my body is dealing with it all... I know that a high dose of evening primrose oil has always helped keep my hormones in check.

I hope your nightmare is over soon. Sorry I can't be more help.

I think you should seek medical advice as 2 weeks seems far too long to me. God it's bad enough without having to face this kind of stuff you poor thing. There is the possibility that you are having a period? Would these be your normal symptons? Don't take that as gospel, it just occured to me that those sound very similar. My thoughts are with you, let me know hos it goes

I am so sorry for your loss too. i didnt feel any real emotion if i am truly honest. I know that sounds so awful but I just wanted to move on and be positive, and I am, but these hormonal waves are just awful. I need this to end soon.

I dont think its a period, all in, in one form or another I have been bleeding for 4 weeks. I just dont have the energy to be miss chirpy chirpy any more......I am sorry I just feel awful tonight.

How are you today?

sorry for your loss some women take longer than others to stop bleeding and sometimes the hormone levels drop slower for others as well..however, it would be a good idea to call your GP for Hcg level testing to make sure they are falling properly and also to make sure ( very sorry to say this and mean it well ) ( ive been through this as well) everything has been expelled. I really hope your feeling better soon.

Hey I just wanted to let you know that its totally normal to be so emotional and it could be down to the sadness or the hormones or both. I had a D&C after a MMC at the end of januray and I still surprise myslef at how emotional I am now - I was always a girl who never cried in public - now I have cried in my Drs waiting room, work, the pub! The list goes on - i went out for a cheer me up drink with DH and his friends and had an almighty crash and sobbed well until 3am - from what I can gather its all normal reactions to an abnormal situation. I bled for about 10 days - is there a Dr or nurse you can call? My clinic (at the hosp) have been very helpful. Hugs to you . you will get better.xxx

Hi there its ectopic, so at least I know. Need to hope it doesnt rupture before sat when they do the surgery.

The teariness is a bit better.....but who knows when it will strike next. Thanks for all the reassuring messages.

mazza, glad to hear that you have some sort of resolution. Hopefully all is well and nothing goes awry. I had a pretty strong hit of hormones about 2 weeks after my D&C, so I would assume the same after you have your surgery. All of the body normalizing makes you not normal.

 

[mazza2003]

Thanks for that. I do psychologically feel good now that I have a resolution, albeit an extreme one. I wont be looking at any tests now and will leave it to the follow up appointments at the hospital.

I will get there in the end.
