Hi all,
I started to miscarry while on holiday on thurs and was admitted to hospital here in Croatia. They found the foetus had died a week to ten days previously and said I needed a erpc so we went ahead with that several hours later. I am now flying home early and just feeling quite scared about everything that happened. The doctor spoke English but was very clinical and I was in shock and didn't really understand what was happening. When I called my gp in the UK they just said miscarriage at this stage is very common and they don't need to see me and they won't check anything at all unless I have 3 miscarriages. I can't believe no one gives you a general check up after? Do they not check it all went ok, or if everything is gone? Do I need vitamins or anything? The doctor here prescribed 4 days of ergometrine and 5 days of antibiotics but I felt so ill after 3 days - nauseous and dizzy - I just stopped. Feeling quote lost and gp didn't seem bothered at all. Let along the fact I can't stop crying, I feel totally depressed and have been having panic attacks. If anyone can help me understand post - erpc stuff I'd appreciate it.
One tmi question - I am having really sharp painful sensations when I need to do a poo or sometimes with gas even. Is this normal and how long does it last for?
