Should I have combined tests?

I am 12 weeks pregnant after 2 MMC's over the last year. I am 38 and aware that my age drives up the odds of certain chromosomal issues in the baby.

I have been really, really anxious every day of this pregnancy. I have part 2 of my nuchal scan today - yesterday my bladder wasn't playing ball.

I am really not sure how I'd cope with a combined screening that showed baby could likely have significant problems, and I'm not sure whether to go for the combined screening or not. I can't spend the rest of this pregnancy feeling as anxious as I have these last few months.

All advice welcomed. TIA
