I just had a laparotomy and D&C for nothing...

[Guest guest]

Well, Thursday's sono supposedly showed a pseudo sac

in the uterus and a mass in my left tube and my beta

was up to 10,000.

I had a D & C( & E) done and they found something which

did not look to be a product of conception but they

sent it off to pathology and am waiting on that report

on Monday.

Because of the sono mass and high beta, they went

ahead and did a laparatomy and found nothing!!! My

tubes are perfectly fine and there is a large cyst on

the left ovary which is what the Dr. believed they saw

on sono. He said it is a hemoragic (sp?) cyst that is

normal due to being pregnant.

To repeat, no pregnancy was found at all but a beta

right after the operation showed a drop from 10000 to

6000. We tried to do a repeat beta this morning, I

was stuck 5 times but they could get no blood out of

me so now I have to wait until Monday to get another

beta.

Sorry for the book, but I am losing my mind. Even

though I went through the operation and everything, it

is still not over. They still have not found the

pregnancy!!!

Bash,

I am so sorry to hear about your frustrating appointment. You must be

going through a variety of different emotions. My thoughts are with

you.

Hi Bash--

Maybe what they found in your tube was part of the ectopic afterall.

I guess you will find out soon when you get the pathology report.

It's good to know that your beta went down after the surgery. Let's

hope it continues going downwards after all you've been through.

It's so confusing when they see something on the U/S and they're not

sure what it is. I had the same thing--I have something in there

still, but the dr. said he's not concerned about it. He thinks it

might be a clot, which might be the same as what your dr. calls a

hemorage. From what I understand, sometimes clots can give off HCG

if they were linked to the pregnancy.

Keep us posted,

Bash,

I am so sorry for all you have been through - I'm sure it seems as though this

nightmare is never going to end! You will make it..and we are all thinking of

you and praying for you.

Bash,

I'm so sorry you are going through all of this. This just is not

fair. It is hard enough to lose a pregnancy without having to go

through all this extra added turmoil. I hope they figure out what

happened soon.

Bash honey, you have been through so much and I wish you had some closure at

this point. Having the ep is hard enough without having to go through all you

have been going through. Take care.

Bash,

I am also very sorry for everything you've had to go through. It is one

thing to loose a pregnancy, but another thing to have to be put through so

many medical procedures.

I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers...
