So, i went to ER last night and they checked for an ectopic pregnancy. In an ultrasound they were able to see the sac that the baby is in, but the baby itself is to little to see on its own. But they were concerned because the week before i found out i was pregnant i had a cat scan done. And they are worried about the effects that the radiation will have on my baby. The Doctor had the nerve to tell me that if i didn't miscarry, which i probably would that i should get an abortion. I was mortified. So i went home and looked everything up online. And basically everything says i wasn't far enough along to do any damage to the baby (i was only 3 weeks along) and the amount of radiation in one cat scan wouldn't do anything anyways. So that calmed me down a bit but i am still really worried, and now i am angry because the hospital did a urine pregnancy test when i had my cat scan but not blood..when i went there two years ago for na outpatient cat scan they did a blood pregnancy test so they weren't liable for any harm done to the baby if i was pregnant...So why didn't they do a pregnancy test with blood last week??? I am scared something will be wrong with my baby....i am not as scared as i was last night but i am very worried.... ↓
