Sorry, I have posted this in a couple of sections as I wasn't sure which one it really fitted in...
Hey All,
I will try to keep this brief:-
LMP 14/10/12
HCG TEST - 06/12/12 - 10500
HCG TEST - 10/12/12 - 12400
HCG TEST - 12/12/12 - 11500
SCAN (due to slight throbbing sensation, lower left abdomen) - 10/12/12 Sac seen measuring approx 5 wks, no yolk, no pole etc. Also 4.5cm abnormal cyst right ovary, blood test confirmed non cancerous.
SMALL BLEED (NO CRAMPING) 11/12/12 - two little finger tip sized clots, stopped within an hour.
Ok the above gives a brief breakdown of recent events. I am now being told they think I am miscarrying and wanted me to go in for a D&C tomorrow. I am in a dilemma, I don't want to practically abort a baby that could have conceived later than expected (I have long cycles, at times irregular) and I have read that a transvaginal scan can cause small bleeds. The scan I had was quite rough as they needed to get images of the cyst. Am I being unreasonable and putting myself and family under unnecessary stress by asking to wait until 21/12/12 to have my next booked scan before proceeding with D&C? Has anyone else experienced anything like this and what was the outcome please? I am in turmoil, I just don't know what to do for the best.
Thank you in advance for your help xx
