I am 20 years old and I feel this doctor suspected me to be ignorant due to my age. Has anyone had a similar experience? Any experience with this medicine? It doesn't seem safe to me, and something definitely seems wrong...f
Two and a half minutes sounds like a rush job and then quickly writing out a prescription without giving you other options does not sound like a doctor you would want to stick with. His diagnosis was too hasty so don't you jump to any conclusions until you've had a second opinion. I think you should wait for a second ultrasound with an experienced technician before you worry about anything else. I was 8 weeks pg and my dr had me come back for another u/s. The techician gave me a transvaginal u/s and it lasted much longer than 2.5 minutes. You didn't say how long you were in your pregnancy, maybe its too early, maybe the dates are off - whatever - just get a second opinion.
Unfortunately, my pregnancy ended in m/c and the doctor gently gave me three options : wait it out and miscarry naturally , d & c , or cytotec. I did ask for a prescription of cytotec just in case I got tired of waiting. I waited 4 weeks before naturally miscarrying at home - drug free.
I wish you alot of luck and - I know its tough because your doctor didn't handle the situation well - but keep positive until you get a definite diagnosis.
Hi I had a miscarriage in march 2009 and I know for sure I did but I took cytotec instead of having the dnc surgery! it give you bad cramps and does work! I thought it would be better than the dnc where there were far more BAD side effects that were possible! I would def. get a second opinion.
I agree that you need a second opinion. Even now when everything is easier to see my U/S lasts more than a couple of minutes!!! I am sorry that this dr was so rude (thats the only word I can think of at the moment...but feel free to add your own!!! :)) Good luck!!! Keep us updated!!
