Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Somebody just shoot me now, please!

I'm so sorry I haven't responed to anyone elses posts in a few days. We were SO busy Friday, I didn't have time to do anything. I just got into work and will try to at least read through and catch up but I'm not doing to good.

Saturday, I had some serious cramps, both abdominal and lower back. I spotted just a bit. Sunday, the cramps were even worse. I laid on the couch with the heating pad alternating between my lower back and my tummy area. The bleeding got a little worse last night. I was already scheduled to go into the obgyn's office this am and give blood for another beta test. I was feeling to bad to go to physical therapy. All I could get on were sweat pants and I have a therma care heat pack on. I walked into the dr's office and I must look as bad as I feel because they rushed me into a room and brought the dr in right away.

They have decided to do a D&C tomorrow. These were the exact words "I'll meet you at the hospital tomorrow unless you start to hemmorage today!"

So, first thing I do of course, is call my hubby. I know he didn't mean to sound like an ass but all he could say was "Well, I guess I HAVE to go with you?" I said "yes" than he says "Well, I guess than I have to reschedule the 6 road services I have for tomorrow." Umm, yes. Thanks for making me feel like a burden.

So, second call I make is to my employeer. First words out of his mouth were "You're still going to the office today?" It wasn't really phrased like a question. So, I said, "Well, I'm in sweat pants, look like hell, I'm in so much pain I can't stand up straight but I guess as long as I don't start to hemorrage, I can go in for a while."

Than of course he wanted to know what time I'll be in tomorrow!! EXCUSE ME, I'll be at the hopistal having surgery what part of this are you not understanding??!!!! So than he says, "Well, I guess you can close the office but you'll be in Wednesday morning right?" MEN!!!!!!! (Sorry for the put down on men but I'm just really upset right now)

So, here I sit, doubled over in front of the computer at work. I REFUSE to stay all day, I'll try and make it a couple of hours but the pain is so bad. The dr this morning said my cervix was dilated and I'm basically going through labor but the lining of my uterus is so thick its unlikey I'll be able to pass all this on my own without hemmoraging.

He gave me an RX for an antibiotic and another drug to help close the cervix that I will have to start taking tomorrow after the surgery.

If only they would have listened to me last week and did the D&C on Friday like I asked. I wouldn't have had to suffer all this pain. I actually saw another dr this morning because my usual dr wasn't in but he started to give me the same speach about they didn't want to do the D&C because the beta's were still going up. I asked this dr if a progesterone of 4, while on supplements, was a viable pregnancy and he said no. Then I asked him with the slow rising beta's if he thought it was viable and he said probably not but started going into the whole thing about my dates could be off!! I was so pissed!! I grabbed his hand and said "When are you men going to start listening to us women! I have a text book 28 day cycle, I was using opk's, my life has revoled around my cycle for the last year, I know my body, I KNOW my dates are not off!!!" GRRR!!

Ok, sorry guys, if you made it this far through this rant, I thank you. I feel that going through my third miscarriage should be enough for me to deal with at the moment but then to have to deal with [censored] drs, insensative husbands and a jerk of a boss, well, its getting to be more than I can bear. Please send me prayers and support to get me through this. I know I have asked a lot from you guys latey and I couldn't have made it this far without all of you.
