So I was planning on participating in a research study to help me get prego and stay prego, but apparently I wasn't eligable because it was ectopic, not a normal intrauterine miscarriage. Well, the left hand didn't talk to the right and I got a call to confirm my apt. I told them that they said I wasn't eligable but my dr had told me that it wasn't a for sure ectopic pregnancy, they just didn't find the embryo in my uterus. Well, they decided to review my information and get back to me. What I found out was that the ultrasound showed a mass in my fallopian tube that contained vascularized tissue. That means that it definitely was a tubal pregnancy. So why didn't they tell me that in the first place? Apparently since they didn't remove it surgically (thank god) and perform a pathological study on it they can't for sure say, "Yup, that's the embryo," they just say it's likely ectopic instead.
So I'm annoyed that Dr's have to play this rediculous game but I'm somewhat releived to know exactly what went wrong last time. I know what my chances for another ectopic are, but I hated not knowing what my chances for another "unknown" issue would have been.
