Im meant to get the results today! They said to ring them if i havent heard by like 2pm. The wait is horrendous.
The virus is literally spread like a normal virus, through a cough/sneeze etc. I was really unwell and just 'felt' something wasnt right so i went into my maternity ward and they took blood which showed my liver function was raised...it then took two weeks of A&E, tests after tests to diagnose CMV. They can only diagnose CMV if they actually specially test for it. I take hygeine so seriously aswell, always using anti-bacterial hand gel after touching things etc but its just bad luck that i got it.
Thing with CMV is its soo bad to ctach in pregnancy yet we dont know anything about it !! and its a lot more common than first thought apparently. But now ive caught it this once, i can never catch it again so future pregnancies wont be affected
