Close Miscarriage

I was 3 months pregnant when I went in for my 12 week check up. That day I decided to go to my appointment alone, for what reason, I do not know. I thought I would surprise my husband with a picture. My doctors appointment required me to drive 1 1/2 hours. In the doctors I sat with the nurse and received all the exciting materials, etc.... discussed if it was a boy, would we have him circumsized, received birth certificate info to be mailed in, etc... While having my ultrasound, it was very emotional, and unbelieving. There layed my baby at the bottom of my uterus. The baby had detached from the emb. sac. The doctor sent me to have a better ultra sound which should the same. She told me to go home and the body would naturally absorb the baby and I would expell the rest. That did not happen. June 8, 2008 I went into labor, and it was excruciating! They transferred me from one hospital to another by ambulance. There I layed for 5-6 hours until the surgery room was available??????? I kept asking why I was losing so much blood. You could hear it coming out. They (the nurses) told me it was perfectly normal. hmmmm??? After the D&C the doctor sent me home. The next 2 days I looked like I was dead. I had no energy, blurred vision, chest, kidney and leg pain. After 2 days I called my Dr. and they sent for a blood test. The results showed I lost 1/2 my blood. I was sent in for a blood transfusion... and now i still am having such a difficult time emotionally, physically I am still have chest pain, and they are telling me to go to the Walk in clinic, the walk in clinic tells me to go to the ER, the ER told me to contact my DR.!!! It is so hard to deal with the MC, but to also be frustrated with my health issues.. I am so looking to talk with someone that has had a similar experience.. GOD BLESS
