Dr - lab mistake???

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 13:01:25 -0500

Dr I have a question. I had my first beta test on Wednesday (10dpo) and it was 4. Friday it was 40. Which was good. On Saturday I had bad back pain (like I was getting my period) and DH and I went to the ER in a different town (different labs) and they said my HCG was 29. I told my regular dr. today what happened and he didn't seem to concerned. he said that labratories can very in their results. But that much??? I would think I would be about 80 on Saturday - NOT 29. I am absolutely freaking out!!!! Is it even possible that things could still be ok????? I need some piece of mind. The back pain went away, and I haven't had any bleeding or spotting.

Has anybody else gone through CVS testing before?

Tue, 12 Aug 2008 18:02:01 -0500

Ok so I'm going be having CVS(Chorionic villus sampling), a prenatal test that detects chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome, as well as a host of other genetic disorders. The doctor takes cells from tiny fingerlike projections on the placenta called the chorionic villi and sends them to a lab for genetic analysis.

So I want to know has anyone had that testing before and what was your experience?!

Question about HCG bloodtest!!! Plz DR Q or Ladies help!

Thu, 17 Jul 2008 11:33:20 -0500

OK back in Dec I went to the doctor b/c I was having very heavy bleeding and very bad cramps. The doc did a blood test to see if I was preggo. She called me back and said that it was a 4 and anything less then 5 means that Im not preggo and I was losing it. I know that u dont have HCG in ur system unless ur preggo but why would it have been so low. Would that have been considered a chemical? Just wondering.

I am 34 yro with PCOS so don't get AF every month so I usualy take 10mg of provera on day 1-10, but last month it was changed to the last 12 days of month so I started AF on 3/30 and Clomid 100mg on 4/1 and had labs drawn Prolacten, testosteron, tsh,t3,t4 & DHEA and on the 21st I'm scedualed to have an ultrasound and Progesteron checked I am soposto start my Provera 20mg on the 20th for 10 days. My question is will the 20mg I take the day before affect my lab resalts, or sould I just wate till the 21 to take them.

Mon, 24 Sep 2007 10:33:13 -0500

I have worked for almost 7 years at a research lab and handled a lot of teratogenic material like ethidium bromide. do u think it could have anything to do with my unexplained infertility? i was wondering if such substances could affect the quality of eggs?
