    Question Help, need answer to question

    At 8 weeks I started bleeding and went in and found my HCG levels had dropped to 0 so I went home to finish my miscarriage after 4 days I had finished bleeding and only a small amount of clots came out (not like with all my other MC's) that was a week ago now and yesterday I started getting very nauseas in the morning and before bed just like with my daughter (I had HG with her) I thought it may be the flu or something but that's my only symptom and its only in the morning and before bed. Is it possible to get these symptoms after a MC if everything doesn't come out?

    Sorry to hear about your loss.

    I would go to your doctor first thing tomorrow.
    It may be an infection and you need to get checked out asap.
    After my termination at 13 weeks I continued with morning sickness for about 5 days. But if your levels are 0 it would seem strange that was it.
    Good luck.

    Hi Ramquist
    Your symptoms are quite unusual with them just being in the morning and at night. However an infection caused by something left behind can cause nausea and/or flu like symptoms. I suggest that you should go and see your doctor as soon as possible

    I'm so sorry for your loss Ramquist. It would probably be a good idea to go and have a chat to your GP and they may refer you on for an ultrasound. I would think (tho I am no expert on the topic) that being only 8 weeks that there wouldn't really be anything big enough to be left behind to warrant a D and C.
    I hope this helps and I hope you are feeling better soon.
