Not feeling right after M/C

[Kate8989]

Hey guys,

I had a miscarriage 4 and a half weeks ago.

I just don’t feel right down below, i haven’t had my period yet. For the last few days I’ve had on/off twinges and pains on left side of pelvis. It’s not unbearable but it’s depressing me and I don’t want to get up in the morning at anticipation of pain.

I shall be going to the docs, but just wonder if anyone has been through the same?

I’m scared, nobody listens to me as they brush me off and say “it’s the MC”. I’m forever googling which is making me loads worse.

Help! X

Bump- anyone?

Hello lovely, so sorry you're going through this. I miscarried at beginning of December and I bled for 7 weeks before I was taken seriously. Eventually I too had twinges so had a scan and needless to say I had retained tissue and an infection. I would highly recommend speaking to your gp and be firm with them. Here if you need to talk xxx

Did they check for retained tissue after your loss?
Have you done a test?
As above it could be something retained, or it could even be a new pregnancy if you’ve been DTD..
it’s worth testing to find out.
Good luck x

I went to the doctors this morning, definitely not pregnant as haven’t had sex (I’m feeling that low) . They are sending me for an internal scan, so just have to wait for the appt to come through.
I have mental health problems and feel as a result any medical issues I have are not taken seriously. Like today I felt such an idiot going to the Dr’s as he was like, “well what’s worrying you”? As if I shouldn’t be concerned about the pains I’m getting. I can feel my mental health getting worse as I want to cry all the time. My family are fed up with me now and that’s when the problems get worse. I feel I have to cry alone and nobody wants to listen to me anymore. I’m worried how this will all end

Kate I just came across your post. How are you doing? x

@Millipede170- not great tbh 😢. Still having pains, went to see a female Dr who did an internal exam on me today. I’ve got copious amounts of discharge and a bleeding cervix, so been giving the strongest antibiotics going.
My mental health is in tatters, I’m fed up with the pain and life in general.
Thank you for taking an interest, i feel so low x

Ah Kate I’m really sorry to hear that. Hopefully the antibiotics will knock the infection on the head so you can start feeling better physically.

Have you thought about talking to a counsellor about how low you are feeling? Cruse Bereavement Care or another mental health organisation maybe. If you don’t fancy it though don’t worry, you can always talk freely here xx
