OMG,. possible molar pregnancy...I'm scared...help

I'm so upset guys...If you remember me posting, I had a miscarriage on February 25th and it took until April 5th for my levels to go to zero.  That weekend, me and my husband went on vacation and we had unprotected sex 1 time...I thought for sure nothing would happen...Well on April 23rd I started bleeding, not too heavy but it was sporadic over a few days...Well I started feeling very tired and my bood kinda hurt and I decided to take a pregnancy test and it came back positive.  So I went to my RE today and they took a blood test and just called and said my levels are thru the roof and that isn't good...They said they were at 43,000 and he is thinking it's a molar pregnancy...I'm scared to DEATH!!!  First of all I'm scared I'm going to die and secondly...I heard you have to wait a full year before trying again!  Please if anyone has any advice for me let me know!
Thanks in advance..

Are they rechecking your HCG level?   Will it go down now?   Could someone at the lab made a mistake, and it was 4,500.   What a story, I 'm glad everything is okay though.

A good friend of mine had a molar pregnancy with her #2.  Her doctor did make her wait a year before trying again.  I've heard that a partial molar is worse than a molar but I'm unsure why.  Hopefully, you are just further along than you think. Good luck with everything.  I'll keep you in my prayers.

Hi girls,
ok, so I went for the US and the doctor said that he did not think it was a molar pregnancy...he did see a sac with a fetal pole and it had a heartbeat of 99...but he can't say if this is going to make it or not...So then my RE called later today as the US tech gave him the report and he said that they are pretty confident that it isn't a molar pregnancy and that he thinks possibly there were twins or even triplets which would account for the high HCG levels and the bleeding could have been them disolving and now there is the 1...but he said we won't know anything as he thinks I'm really only 5 weeks and that is early...
I don't know what to think actually...I'm not getting my hopes up but at least I'm not FREAKING out about the molar thing any longer...
Thanks so much to all you girls for helping to calm me down!!

I am sure you will be okay.  There are many women on this site that got pregnant right after a m/c and everything is going good for them.  They usually say wait one cycle before trying to get prego, but what can you do!  Could you be futher along then you think...that could be why your levels are so high.  I guess only an ultrasound will tell.  Good luck!
