I didn't really know where to post this as I feel it's a cracker, but it wasn't me who was crackered - but it's going to be a vent!!!
Have just been informed by my MIL that a woman she works with has just been diagnosed with HG (whch is a step forward here considering I only knew because I was in the states when it first hit me and went the entire preg not having it named once!). She's 10 weeks preg and just been released from the hosp after IV and meds etc .......
but had to fight with them to get to take the meds home!!!!! When are they going to learn that we NEED them - we don't take them for nothing! There are not many preg women who take medication lightly - and can't imagine that there are ANY who take it for nothing!
I say good for her for being strong enough to fight with them at 10 weeks - I didn't learn to fight back until I was past the 20 weeks stage and I wish I'd been strong enough to. Would have made my preg an awful lot less stressful! I have asked my MIL to pass on HER's website so she should hopefully be joining soon, but will offer my e-mail address etc too in case she needs extra support. I know she's going to need it if she lives here!!! (sigh!)
Oh well, vent over - just wish they'd pay attention and stop confusing the lines between MS and HG! I know you're all with me on that one!
