Early losses (years apart)?
Long story...beyond devastated.. But I need opinions from anyone that may have had similar experience.
Been TTC for close to 7 years. PG on my own in 2010; lost it at 7 weeks ...no heartbeat. Had D&C, testing found 1 extra chromosome.
In the middle of all this I have done countless IUI's. Taken breaks, tried on my own. Met with countless RE's. Nothing worked. Went gluten free for a year. Decided to finally give IVF a chance and had my first cycle this April. Ended up pregnant with twins. Around what was supposed to be 6 weeks baby A had a heartbeat. Baby B didn't yet. At 7 weeks baby A had no heartbeat and baby B did. At today's Sono no heartbeats detected. Babies both measured about 6 weeks 1 day.
Since the day I found out I was pregnant I've been nothing but a nervous wreck. Praying everything is OK. Sono apps were the worst bc I was beyond scared And nervous that something would be wrong. And it seems I had a reason to be.
My question is I still need answers. I saw Braverman in 2009 & he ran his tests. Had elevated NK and c677 mutation but wasn't too concerned with mutation because it wasn't a big issue according to him b/c I think it was one copy I had?? Was on Prednisone and Intralipids for 3 months and still didn't get pregnant so I left Braverman. My fertility doctor this time around (LIIVF/Kreiner) refused to continue me on Prednisone. I was on low dose (10mg) per day because I begged him. When script ran out at 5 weeks he refused for me to continue. So I need to find out if these embryos were genetically normal. If not, I need to figure out why I keep making abnormal embryos?? Three embryos transferred....two were Grade AA 8 cell and the third was 7 cell all transferred on Day 3.
The only doctors left that I basically have yet to see is Zapantis and Kofinas. Kofinas wants to charge $1200 for consult. Is either one better. I do know one is an RE and the other is not.
For the past 7 years I've tried to be my own doctor when I wasn't getting answers from anyone else. Now I'm starting this all over Again. Just when I had. Glimmer of hope that I was so past all this. And now I'm not as my fears and my nitemares have come true. I have three frozen embies left and refuse to do an FET until I get answers and protocols.....and possibly a vacation!
I'm 38 If that matters and all along have been diagnosed with Unexplained. No PCOS. No severe endo. Bloods have always been normal.
In your opinion, who do I see next? Zapantis? Kofinas? Braverman again? Anyone else???? I'd also love to hear you true honest opinions as I know so many on here are so helpful. I will probably repost this on the Miscarriage board as well just in case.
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Early losses (years apart)?
so so so sorry. MY heart breaks for you.
Have you tried meeting with an MFM? I went to a RE and saw an MFM. I would imagine with your loss history you would be an great candidate for some of the high risk programs they have. Winthrop has a GREAT program. Feel free to FM me for more details.
Sending hugs and strength.
