the miscarriage that never ends

After the D&C... I got sick. Very very sick. I called the OB daily to ask for an apointment only to be told that fevers and excessive bleeding were to be expected. Four days later... I was running a fever of 103.5 and my pulse rate was 137. The ER sent me home. I returned a week later to the hospital with a severe pain and was found to have an enormous clot running from my ovary clear up my body.

I was hospitalized for a week and put on blood thinners.

The good news?

I am alive. Odds were not in my favor.

I have two new doctors who rock and are very proactive. The OB/GYN is awesome and very to the point... I like having honest docs... go figure.
