I experienced a missed miscarriage 4 weeks ago had to take tablet and remain in the hospital for an hour in case of possible side effects and then was told to go home come back in 24 or 48 hours (cant remember now everything still a daze) for the vaginal tabs. The night before I was due to go back i passed what i can assume to be the sac I had been in so much pain for previous 5 weeks (and i feel terible for saying this) but it felt a relief, the pain just seemed to go away. Then about 2 hours later the pain returned i was bleeding so heavy and in so much pain i contacted the emergency number that i had been given. They told me to go down to the hospital bcoz they would need to check where the bleed is from. I went to the hospital doctor gave me an internal which was obviously very painful and then sent me for a scan, he told me if there was anything on the scan then i would have to remain in the hospital until the treatment was completed. However when I had my scan i was told that there was still something there and it against the protocol to do an internal scan it could be a clot but they have to treat it as tissue and let the doctor decide. I returned to the ward, the doctor I had seen earlier had gone and i seen a different doctor who told me the same results of the scan but said he would give me some more tablets to take home and take every 12 hours the following day instead of having the viginal tabs. Cant remember what they were called something beginning with m???? He then sent me home to take them and i have not been asked to return to the hospital or anything. The doctor had to speak to the pharmicist at the hospital as they said the tablets are usually taken on the premises and the pharmicist even wrote on the prescription that it is against normal practise bt doctor said it exceptional circumstances, I mean what does that mean? :s I am concerned about this as i thought they might want to check to make sure everything had gone, i mentioned this to my GP who said no any problems now and you just come to me and if i need to i will send you to the hospital. I am so confused, I feel really uneasy about the situation. I have been TTC for about 6, i was diagnosed with endometriosis 9 years ago and have PSO. Sorry I have gone on about it i just dont feel anybody has shown an interest i feel like they have just given me the tablets and left me to get on with it and havent checked everything ok. Has anybody else experienced this kind of treatment from the hospital and what should i do? :( are they right? am i just being silly? :(
