Call = Bad News?
During our first appointment last week at 5 weeks, they took blood for all kinds of tests. My OBGYN told me "no news is good news" and that they will only call if something is wrong.
Well, I got a vm this morning asking me to call back about some test results. I almost fainted. I called back but apparently my OBGYN is out this week and I have to wait for a nurse to call me with the results.
It's been almost 2 hours and I cannot think straight I am so worried.
What could it be?
I'm so anxious

Re: Call = Bad News?
Since the Dr. is out, it could be anything from them just giving you your results to something minor like RH factor to more. Try not to worry.........it's probably nothing.

Thanks so much for your words. I really really hope it's nothing. I am trying not to worry but I have this enormous pit in my stomach.

since this is the first blood work I would guess it's the standard tests that just check your immunizations, blood type, random gluecose... stuff like that. My doctor called me too (which also scared me) but they just wanted me to know that I was not immune to fifths diease. Hopefully the call is something not to serious.

My doctor had called to tell me that my progesterone was really low. They gave me suppositories and I was fine. Hopefully it is something simple for you

Re: Call = Bad News?
I got the call back.
I am a carrier of Spinal Muscular Atrophy. DH now needs to get tested to see if he is also a carrier. Since I am, the nurse referred us to a genetic counselor.
No one in my family history has ever had SMA. I just spoke to my mom (who had three kids) and she was in disbelief.
I don't know what to think. I want DH to get tested ASAP so we can meet with a genetic counselor.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks for the support!
