Galloping Cats

Whew February 13, 2008

Filed under: Miscarriage #2 (Ectopic) — gallopingcats @ 10:05 am

Beta is on the way down. From the 700s on Friday to the 500s on Tuesday. More bloodwork on Friday to make sure it continues on its way and that the meth didn’t damage my liver and kidney function, then weekly after that till it hits 0.

Bad news is that Dr. Nice said that even though it was microscopic in size, it surely damaged my tube and that, not the meth, is the reason for waiting at least one extra cycle before trying again. More on that when I can find the strength.

    I’m glad it’s over. Hopefully the tube will check out ok. Still thinking of you…

    Good news–though I’m suspicious of how a doctor (even a nice one) could be sure tubal damage at this point.

    (If you’re looking for distractions, I tagged you for a meme on my blog.)

    I was also wondering how he knew there was damage already. Ugh. Glad that the numbers are doing what they ought to and I really hope the dizziness backs off now.

    Oh, sweetheart – big hugs to you. I’m amazed at your strength and determination.

    Whew, and it sounds like a little, gulp.

  6. Maren Says:

    It just keeps getting better and better, huh?

  7. caro Says:

    Whew and gulp from me, too. Do they do some sort of tube check (HSG?) before you try again, or??

  8. Jill Says:

    Hoping the dizziness clears as well.

  9. The worst is over? Hope this all winds down soon for you.

    Well, thank heavens for small mercies. I’ll hang onto the fact that it’s on the way down and hoep for your tube (although I am thinking along the lines of Brooklyn Girl, also).

  11. JennyK Says:

    Hope you’re feeling a bit better. Will they check it all out before you guys end up trying again?

  12. cat Says:

    May he be wrong, thinking of you.

    I am so sorry that I wasn’t here during all of this to lend my support. Damn Ectopic! And the stress and crappy feeling. Sorry you had to have this drag on. I hope that you get to feeling better soon.
