a question i've been afraid to ask

[Guest guest]

Here is a question that I have been afraid to ask or to research in fear of

what I might find. What is the basis for the discussion on rising HCG

levels and blighted ovums? Here it is (deep breath)...When I had my

blighted ovum D & C (which caused my AS) at 11 weeks there was reportedly " no

fetal pole " by ultrasound on two separate occasions about one week apart. I

had serial HCG's (X3) at the same time with levels that were in the 50,000

range that continued to rise in spite of the ultrasound findings. Could

they have been wrong about the diagnosis and " sucked " out a normal fetus

along with my fertility? Oh God, I could not take anymore guilt than what I

am already dealing with!
