Miscarriage investigation success stories PLEASE

[Where there's hope]

Satya - yes, thank you for sharing your story. Like a lot of women on this website, I am joining the queue for a miracle.

Flowerchild - WOW. I have no idea what it is but that prednisone seems to come up quite a bit on these forums. I will keep you informed as to how my appointment goes with Dr S, if you like.

Thanks for all your words and wisdom, today, ladies.

Prednisolone is a very powerful steroidal drug. It is a drug that Dr S treats his nk cell proliferation patients with. It isn't something to be taken lightly as it does have some nasty side effects.

It is also used to treat autoimmune diseases amongst other things.

I went through a doctor with Sydney IVF after recurrent miscarriage and I was treated with Clexane, low dose aspirin and progesterone pessaries. It was stressful at the time, but I'm a success story. My baby is 5 weeks old.

My doctor started with the blood work and then wanted me to have a laparoscopy and a hysteroscopy after a month or two recovery from my last miscarriage. He started me on aspirin after we got the blood results back and told us both to get lots of antioxidants. I fell pregnant before we had a chance to do the hysteroscopy and laparoscopy and carried to term. I was monitored pretty closely for the first 18 weeks of the pregnancy, I had to have my first prenatal visit quite early, at 5 weeks I think, and I started Clexane at 5 weeks, and my progesterone started to drop at 6 weeks so I started progesterone then.

I hope you have as quick and successful journey as I have had.

I dont come here but i just wanted to offer hope cause like you and many others i had to scrape for every bit i could get to keep going. I had 6 miscarriages. We never really got any explanation as to why. We did IUI and it ended in miscarriage and our second round has me 28 weks pregnant.

You might like to consider acupuncture too, they have treatments for miscarriage and you can use it to help you with conceiving a pregnancy. I can't help you with recommending someone in Sydney, but perhaps someone here can. The studies and results are very good.

Thanks everyone!

Since my last post on this thread I learned my third loss was a Trisomy 15 (very rare, but completely spontaneous and not compatible with life).

I will be continuing with the program as now two of my three losses have been chromosonal and they want to look further into it.

As it happens, I am starting accupuncture tomorrow. I have always been horrified of needles, but after being a pin-cushion for the last twelve months I am actually looking forward to it!

Gabi - congratulaions on your healthy little buba
Traseal - I can't begin to imagine the painful journey that you have had. Did they do any chromosonal testing on your miscarriages?

Thanks again for your responses

WTH - I don't have any new info for you, what Deb and the others have said has covered everything, but I just wanted to wish you the best of luck.

Deb, Satya, etc - you girls are a wealth of knowledge and so helpful to those of us who have gone through m/cs just like you have, and you have helped so much. I just wanted to say thanks

You will enjoy accupuncture, its not like needles and can be very relaxing.
Thy tested my DF and i for chromosomal abnormalities and we are fine. They never check any of my actuall m/c POC. I did try but the hospital laughed at me. Lets just say the medical system has poorly POORLY let me down. No one wanted ANYTHING to do with me or to offer any help, i was put in the "to hard" basket MANY times. I ended up at Queensland fertility group and they were absolutely wonderful.
