Hello,
I posted on this board recently as I was told I was having an ectopic pregnancy, I had a laparoscopy and it turned out there wasn't an ectopic. Whilst recovering I had another scan which showed a 12mm sac which was empty and then four days later ( last Wednesday) another scan showed an empty 18mm sac.
I was given a leaflet about medical management of a miscarriage and sent home and told to come back for another scan (tomorrow) when I'll be exactly 7 weeks. I also have an appointment booked for Thursday morning to take the medication to induce a miscarriage. I've been trying to spend the past week being hopeful and optimistic, my HCG was 72,000 yesterday and has been rising the right amount every 48 hours and I've been reading so many stories online of women who had an empty sac one week and a feotus with a heartbeat at the next scan. I've been clinging on to these stories but this afternoon it's hit me that there won't be a heartbeat tomorrow.
At my last scan I was 6 weeks with a HCG level of 22,000 and the sac was completely empty and they told me they should've seen something and they think its a blighted ovum which they can officially diagnose after tomorrow's scan.
I feel really numb and empty inside and haven't left my bed today. I've struggled with depression for a while and have been managing really well for the past year but it's as if it's suddenly come back.
I don't have any friends and my DP is so upset so I don't feel like I have anybody to talk to so I hope it's okay that I ramble on here. I feel completely exhausted from being told it's ectopic, having an operation and then waking up to be told it's not ectopic, a scan which showed an empty sac but told that was normal for so early so I got excited again, then another scan where I'm told I'm likely to miscarry.
I'm not sure why I posted really I just wanted somebody here to talk to after my scan tomorrow. Thank you
