Hi I was hoping that someone might be able to give me some advice, as to be honest I might as well talk to a wall when talking to most of the Dr's in my local hospital. I had a EPRC on the 12th October following a MC and a week later I called my emergency doctor complaining of heavy bleeding. I was admitted onto the Gynaecology ward where the Dr there managed to remove some product remaining by hand (nice hey!) I stayed in over night and was then assured I was going to go for a scan the next day to make sure it had all been removed. The Dr was so confident he had removed it all that he didn't bother sending me for a scan in the end and sent me home with antibiotics. Anyway I went on with my life over the last six weeks and was starting to feel back to normal when on Monday I hemridged and was rushed into hospital via ambulance. The blood loss was quite bad and just avoided transfusion. After several hours trying to stop the bleeding it settled and I was finally sent for a scan the next day. The scan shows that there is still some retained product and after doing a urine test the results still show that the hormones in my body still think they are pregnant. The Dr still does not want to send me for a repeat EPRC as the risk now the womb has contracted back down may cause infection etc and he still believes that it will pass naturally WHAT CAN I DO? I feel so down and so upset, I have not gone back to work yet through fear of hemridging again, as they have told me that this cannot be guaranteed. I have booked to go private hoping I get the answer there but just feel like I need people to talk to about it. Has anyone had anything similar? Can anyone help with advice or reassurance? Thank you.
