Went for my follow up scan today. It's far from over. I need a rant. The jist is I can't even fucking miscarry properly and NHS miscarriage care is appalling.
The sonographers were whispering it wasn't back to normal. I asked them what was going on and they wouldn't tell me.
I had to wait an hour for my consultation.
My consultant thought I was back because I'd MC two weeks ago and was concerned I was bleeding. No, I MC 10 days ago and was back at their request today, I assume the bleeding is normal.
There is still some tissue. I have to go back for another scan in two weeks time to see where we are at. If it is still there, they will be thinking of surgery. Off you go home, see you in a couple of weeks.
They are not coming near me.
I have been on the phone to the miscarriage association who were wonderful and answered all the questions I needed to ask.
I cannot believe there's no set information to send you away with because I imagine lots of women have the same questions.
I cannot believe they don't make sure to lecture you on not having sex. (I'm not going to, because I do know it's not a good idea but they should be telling people that).
They don't mention anything about the emotional stuff. I was just about to call the Samaritans before I remembered the MA helpline. I can't tell you how low I was feeling when I came out of that consultation. It's irresponsible. I have lined up counselling tomorrow (I already have private counselling).
Going to try and calm down and consider my options for referrals elsewhere.
I'm upset and livid.
