ever have a complete rollercoaster emotion day?

[shirlene29]

wake up...get ready for ultrasound appointment

excited, happy

see ultrasound, tech says...everythings good...go wait for the dr

cheerful...still no definitive gender, frustrated

see dr, who says tech found two possible cranial brain issues
referal to perinatologist, US tech was kind of a jerk at reg dr...maybe she screwed up

Dr maintains good poker face and says probably no big deal (then why send me to the crazy high risk dr for the level 2 ultrasound and possible amnio?)

worried

DR google incites complete panic when I realize that one of these defects if its even there is pretty much proof positive theres spina bifida

furious to realize the other "defect" is a non issue...like at all

find spina bifida group which is very reassuring

spouse buys new laptop somewhere in the mix because I'm beside myself and it hurts to be at the desk top

find radiology study that points out in absence of other markers this is probably a misinterprentation of the scan...

kinda pissed


grab scan done three weeks ago and easily find the "missing ventricle"
really angry but relieved

still no answer on the spina bifida marker...no call from perinatologist for when that appointment is

Don't give out hope, I know a man that merely 2 weeks ago was told they were 100% positive he had cancer, and he just went back for a checkup this week and they can't find a trace of it.
