MRI Results

We saw the Dr. on Friday evening. The radiologist who read the MRI said that she doesn't think that the placenta has entered the bladder. However, the placenta has breeched the uterine wall making the outcome of this whole thing still unknown. I am very glad that it doesn't appear to be part of the bladder, making a bladder repair less likely. I am still very nervous because the situation is still far from safe. The surgery still has to be done in a regular OR with a gynecologic oncologist there to do the uterine repair (if it is indeed salvageable). There will still probably be a massive blood loss, and the need for a transfusion. I will still need to have an arterial line during the surgery. She said she will shoot for the C-Section to be done sometime the week of May 14, however she also said that she would be doing the happy dance if I could stay pregnant that long. She thought that, in her experience, we would be most likely doing an emergency C-Section at some point. Still no hospitalized bed rest unless any bleeding starts. And one more thing to add to the pile - the 1 hour glucose tolerance test was abnormal, so in I go to do the 3 hour procedure. Apparently anybody whose blood sugar is above 140 needs to have the 3 hour gtt done. My blood sugar... 142

Will somebody throw me a bone here? Anybody?
