We went ahead and did them, but he said that he'd take any elevated results with a grain of salt because of the one baby that we'd lost. So I think that you are surely fine. I understand the nerves, however, and am thinking of you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582924774467609542.post-90901327871418173562011-04-05T19:34:55.867-05:002011-04-05T19:34:55.867-05:00Hi ... wanted to offer you some encouragement from...Hi ... wanted to offer you some encouragement from Dr. Google. I spent a good 30 minutes on pubmed and found this article. It shows that after fetal reduction (which I would say is the same biologically as miscarrying just for the sake of levels of chemicals in your body), AFP levels are indeed elevated.<br /><br />http://cel.isiknowledge.com/InboundService.do?product=CEL&action=retrieve&SrcApp=Highwire&UT=A1993MC45800039&SID=1EhbHoN7nooAcia765e&Init=Yes&SrcAuth=Highwire&mode=FullRecord&customersID=Highwire<br /><br />I really hope this helps ease your fears.

I am dreading the same thing happening. I was also kinda' pissed bc when I brought up my concerns at the meeting with the genetic counselor - well, she wasn't able to answer my questions clearly. <br />The good news is, that the high A.FP is likely the result of the losses. Most likely baby must be fine!<br />Thinking of you!!!<br />Hoping the MFM will be better getting you answers!erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07652721342410868916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582924774467609542.post-59331772756762701092011-04-05T13:42:48.542-05:002011-04-05T13:42:48.542-05:00Damn, I didn't even get a chance to post on th...Damn, I didn't even get a chance to post on the normal-ville post.

I know this isn't what you wanted to hear and we didn't do the quad screen so I don't know anything about it. Sounds like your doc is in unfamiliar territory as well. Hoping your next appointment gives you better info.Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323837009145940400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582924774467609542.post-24450295625194290722011-04-05T11:25:09.253-05:002011-04-05T11:25:09.253-05:00Well FUCK!
