I had a large bit of retained membranes which my body expelled a week after birth. The hospital put me on a course of antibiotic for a week and I felt much better. Now a week after the antibiotics finishing I have a temperature and feel rotten again. Could this be more retained membranes? GP has put me on a low dose of antibiotics for another week, but why do they not check how much is left (if any) with a scan? Will they just keep treating with antibiotics until temperature doesn't come back or might I need a D&C?
