Hey. Thought I would share a bit on my quest for answers/closure. I visited the reproductive endocrinologist last week. She is running some additional blood work, put Jeff and I on an antibiotic and wants to do an ultrasound of my uterus after my next cycle.
My OBGYN called Monday with the pathology report on my latest loss. It was positive for Turner's syndrome. It is disorder of the X chromosome affecting females. The most common chromosomal cause of miscarriage. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turner%27s_syndrome This answers questions about this latest loss. The reproductive endocrinologist said I had a 1% chance of it happening again. I still wonder about the loss last summer. It was so similar to this recent one. Can my odds be that bad?
I am working at getting healthy but McDonalds tends to get in my way. I joined a Big Loser Challenge on momslikeme.com It runs Feb 1 to May 1. Jeff and I are also giving up fast food for Lent. I need motivation.
Thanks for listening.
