While we were out today, the fertility doctor we saw yesterday called us on my cell phone. He said that he called to talk to Dr. Davis, and brought up what we talked about yesterday with the mutated x chromosome. Dr. Davis said it was possible and we can check it out, but he had just gotten a call from the doctor performing the pathology report, and he wanted to speak with us about those results first. So we were asked to call, and after waiting the longest 30 minutes of my life, the doctor called us back.
While the written report isn't signed off on yet, she is confident that there was a major problem with the placenta, and it was, as my doctor explained "like the placenta had a heart attack".
He still wants to wait on the chromosome results and the final report, but at least its something. And it can be treated aggressively with baby aspirin and heparin. Oddly enough, just as our doctor thought, the two losses were not related. At this point of the information at least.
Okay, i like information. Thank you Lord for an answer--finally!!!
oh great news! you just have freakishly bad luck. Much better than a chromosomal abnormality.
ReplyDeleteseriously.
I am so happy that you were able to get some answers! As much as it hurts it can still offer some peace. Thinking of you....
ReplyDeletei had this passing thought--to lessen my anxiety throughout the pregnancy dr davis let me have an ultrasound every 2 weeks to make sure Rango was okay. The kicker is, whatever was wrong with the placenta couldn't be detected on ultrasound...just another lesson to learn i guess.
ReplyDeletehopefully when the rest of the results come in there's nothing else more serious. i can live with this (kinda)...
