I’m hoping to find some solidarity. But if you’re the praying type, I will take them.

First, I got pregnant with an iud. I tested at 4 weeks and it was positive. The dr took it out and told me it likely wouldn’t be viable. 4 weeks later and we see a heartbeat.

3 weeks later I suffered a spontaneous pneumothorax (collapsed lung) had to have 3 chest tubes to get it corrected. I was hospitalized for 4 days and sent home. 48 hours later, it happened again. I had an appointment with my OB. Asked her to listen to my lung, and they sent me to the er. I was right. Another chest tube and admitted. 2 days later, I had surgery. They said waiting would risk me and baby more, but I had to accept the baby would likely not survive the surgery.

Miraculously baby made it. I was in the hospital a week later with that, and 2 more chest tubes.

Sunday I thought my lung collapsed again. I went to the er. I have pneumonia. They were going to admit me but then decided I was high risk and showing signs of a pulmonary embolism. They did a ct with contrast (with OB approval so it was serious but I’m scared of the damage with that). I don’t have a pe, and they determined surgery was a success.

Also, I have been impatiently waiting to have the results, for 3 weeks, for the progenity test.

Anyone with me on this? I don’t want to feel so stressed and alone. They are talking about a very early delivery to help save my lung.
