Hi all, I hope I'm posting this where I'm supposed to.
I had a miscarriage at 11-12 weeks (the first of five in total) 6 years ago and just now I finally managed to get access to my medical records. I needed the access for entirety different reasons, but I saw that on the last blood and urine test, which I requested as we were going on a holiday (I wanted to make sure everything is fine before travelling) it says "insignificant growth" but I was told that everything is fine.
So we went on a holiday only to have the most traumatic experience in my life that nearly killed me and ruined me completely, it took me years to start living somewhat normally... I had my miscarriage in a foreign country with virtually none existing healthcare system compared to what we have here, more than 10 hours full blown labour and passing out from the pain before an ambulance took me to a hospital where after one day I had the "product" removed with no anaesthesia, while one nurse is flashing her phone between my legs for more light with my husband holding me down...
I was between 11-12 weeks, I've got everything documented, just don't want to open that folder unless I really have to.
My question is - if I had insignificant growth why I was told that everything is fine? I specifically said that I will be travelling and if something was not right I will cancel our holiday. Are they legally obligated to let me know the real status of my pregnancy? We all know what insignificant growth means, why on earth I was told everything is fine and sent to travel when clearly it wasn't fine?
If anyone can shed some light on this I will be forever grateful... Till now I lived with the guilt that I did something wrong, that it's my fault that I lost my baby, just to find out that things were not going very well 4-5 days before we traveled.
I'm still in shock... I can't stop thinking about this, if someone was supposed to tell me but didn't for whatever reason I need to know why or I'll lose my mind...
Thank you all !!!
