Hi everyone,I live in Paisley in Scotland with my fiance who was diagnosed(eventually)with HG about 7(very,very long)weeks ago.
This is our 2nd pregnancy,as my fiance had a miscarriage a few months back.
I have been disapointed with the lack of information given to me by doctors,midwifes,and nurses on HG so far,hence why I turned to the internet.
I am interested in how people who's partner is HG+ (so to speak)get by,I myself feel very tired,stressed,helpless,and basicaly just worn out.I know my fiance must feel a million times worse than myself,which makes me feel even worse.
My fiance has been admitted to hospital 8 times now,usualy she is admitted for 4-5 days,then when she is released i get her home for a day,maybe 2 if we are lucky.
So far my fiance has only been given the IV,an injection was tried(not sure what though)but failed to have any effect.After reading some info on this site I asked the doctor at the local hospital about zofran(seems to be a favourite abroad).
The doctor has told me that they may well end up trying zofran soon if there is no change(she is now 12weeks almost).The NHS seems stubborn when it comes to using newer drugs/medication apparently.
Im wondering also if there are any information type groups within scotland/uk that anyone could point me to as not many people seem to even know what HG is.
Ironically my fiance first got hit with HG on her birthday,which I was trying to make special
