I've just recently too been given an almost certain diagnosis of partial molar pregnancy. I had a D & C almost 4 weeks ago and it has only just come to my knowledge. Thankfully being a nurse I already have contacts in the health profession who encouraged me to get a review on my abnomal pathology. The diagnosis was down scaled from 'complete' to 'partial' and the products have been sent to Sydney for further analysis. I am hopeful that it will be a partial molar, but have fears for future pregnancies as this was my first one and I'm going on 34years of age. The gynae-oncologist is hopeful that I'll be alright as my serum hcg has almost got to zero post D & C. But I still grieve the lost of a baby that was never to be and the fear of my own mortality.
Fingers crossed in the next few months all will come good again. Its good to know that there are forums to discuss these dilemmas. Hope you'll be alright elle2.

I am really sorry for your losses and the difficulties you now face. I am currently waiting the results of my D&C as there is a chance I had a molar pregnancy (I miscarried naturally at 6 weeks and although my HCG initially dropped quickly from over 4000 to just over 1000, they then started to rise very slowly). The D&C was today - my FS told me I should have the pathology results by Wed...
Did you have any symptoms that indicated a molar pregnancy? or was it a shock when you got the test results? I am 42 and am just absolutely petrified of having to wait - I've already waited too long.
