Hi, firstly I would like to apologise as this may be a long post. Here goes, I was diagnosed with endo (not sure what stage) over 5 years ago when my gyneo done the dye test to check my fallopian tubes due to unexplained infertility, anyway turns out my right fallopian tube was blocked with fluid so needed to be removed. During this lap it was confirmed I had endo but unfortunately nothing could be done during this lap as it was too deep and surrounded by too many blood cells. Went for a second lap around a year and half later to remove endo and separate adhesions. Anyway after 9 years of trying to conceive we finally got our positive pregnant test but sadly miscarried in March 2016. Was trying to conceive since then for 2 years and got our 2nd positive pregnancy test but started bleeding a week ago today! Another miscarriage! I am heartbroken and just want some answers. I really cant put myself and my partner or family through the heart break of another miscarriage. The part thats killing me of not knowing what is causing the miscarriages! I dont know if endo has spread and thats whats causing it or whether its something else. I have a list of things to ask my GP to look into when she telephones me on tuesday. I would very much appreciate any advice right now. Sorry again for the long post. Xx

Awwww my love, I'm so sorry for your losses. Iv been there enough times hun, read my profile if you wish, have you not asked to be referred to a recurrent miscarriage clinic some, take you after 2 losses, I am with one and they found I have got a hereditary blood clotting disorder thrombophila factor 2 which puts, me at high risk for miscarriage I'm now doing the Alife 2 trial, to see if daily injection of heparin helps others in my situation not to miscarry. I'm pleased to say I'm now 12 weeks pregnant,
Please speak with your gp and ask them if they will refer you like you say it's too much heartache to get pregnant and not carry to full term sending you big hugs and lots of love, pm me if you ever want to chat hun.

Thank you very much for your reply. I really appreciate you taking the time. I have spoken to my GP and they have told me to wait until I have an internal scan to confirm I have passed everything without needing help and see if the early pregnancy clinic refer me for tests once they have done the internal. The bleeding stopped yesterday and the internal scan is on 30th April. I have a telephone call with my GP on Tuesday ( the last doctor i spoke to wasnt who i normally see as my gp wasnt available) Im just not happy with waiting any longer and they have not sent me for a full blood count to check my iron and what not. We have been ttc for sooo long. I am just sick of waiting and not getting anywhere. Fingers crossed my own GP will get things moving. Thanks again. Congratulations hunni. You deserve it. ππ x
Ask them for all the tests you require hun iron is defo one that needs doing after a loss, mine was low after my last loss, get on to them about it all don't just listen to what they say and walk away, ask and keep asking it's torture, have you thought about going to Tommy's they are really good and support ladies in our situation, a lady I know has had a great deal of support from them. Look them up hun.
Thanks. Keep me updated in how you get on don't get fobbed off.
Big hugs and lots of love.

I will do. Thanks hunni. My head was all over the place when I spoke to Gp it still is but ive had bit more time to think. They sent me for full blood count the last time but this time nothing and I didnt think to ask. Ive wrote a list so I dont forget on Tuesday. Im worrying Im going to be too old if it doesnt happen soon π© I will definitely look them up lovely. Thanks for that. I certainly wont be getting fobbed off. Ive just took what doctors and gyneos have told me and gone with it but not any more. I want answers. I will do lovely thank you very much. Good luck to you and I will keep an eye on your profile π thanks again love ππ xx
Naturally you wouldn't have asked you can't think straight at these times, good idea to write things down hun. I know what you mean about taking what they say as Gospel I stopped doing that in August 2016 it got me where I am today, remember you don't get if you don't ask don't be shy it's your life.
I'll check up on you hun remember I'm here if you want to chat, take care lovely.
