(same as ttc after m/c)...

ok girls...I need your help...

I had my d&c on 9/25. I went back for a check up on the 16th (cd 2 for me,btw) and all came back good-levels down to normal, etc...I did have an af, although very light and lasting 4 days. Last week I posted about having the urge to test even though I have not o'd yet...well I did and it was positive (this is Friday night) Tested with several differant brands and have had a 50/50 pos vs neggie response. I called my doc and he said it is possible that the af was implantation not af (or even 0???), or that I have retained a "product of conception" and it is now making my levels go haywire. He ordered a beta and they have to send the reults out as he is also doing several other tests. I tested again this morning and still a positive but it was more faint than the last.

I am nervous and confused and hate waiting. I feel that it is probably senario 2 (retained products) and hate to think of a cycle of provera or another d&c and I so want it to be a real +++, but I am afraid that it isn't. I can't concentrate and am having trouble foccusing at work.

Anyone ever had this happen??

Thanks guys!

Always,

Chrissy

This is a tricky one...its really hard to tell. You would think since your evels were all back to normal after the m/c that there shouldn't have been anything left, or it would have showed on your levels then, thats why they test afterwords. But being that the tests arn't all consistantly the same and the last being fainter I may have to agree with you that maybe something was retained. I hope its not the case, if it is i'm so sorry that you have to go through all this. Good Luck, your in my prayers and i'm sending lots of baby dust to you!!
