Right girlies, can't believe this could be the route to all my problems. Internet reading is bad, I KNOW!!!!! but I can't help myself 
OKAY, as most of you know I've just had my 4th MC and on thursday night the most bizzare thing happened to me. I had to take a DF118for the pain (MC had started) and I thought I was having a reaction to the codeine in it. My body felt strange (drunk like) and my hands were numb along with parts of my face. So since then this feeling has stayed with me, not the nicest of feeling let me tell you!
ANYWAY, it's just came to me today, I had this feeling when I had my thyroid removed in December 06, there is a high risk of the parathyroid gland being affected, this is the gland that produces calcium, and unfortunately, my gland was damaged. I took calcium tablets for a year after the op but stopped taking them as my body felt fine, UNTIL THURSDAY night.
After reading the net (tut, tut) it turns out if you have low calcuim levels this can cause misscarriage (by 85% may I add in the 1st trimester). I am back at my Thyroid surgeon on wednesday to discuss thyroid and RMC....OMG this could have been the problem all along. When I went to the gyn last week he told me there was no medical explanation for my losses, which left me feeling more empty than ever. I think i could have dealt with it better if there was.
WOO HOO!!!!! I'm so exciting about my appointment on Wednesday now.
