Expert: Doctor Early Options - 6/25/2011

Question
QUESTION: Good day to you! as i browsed the net I know that you are God's blessing to my unending questions regarding my medical abortion. PLEASE read my story...

    My period is almost always regular but my last one was April 3, 2011 then I had sex with my BF last April 7, 15 and 24, 2011) and since then i had no period and started to be paranoid! I had a pregnancy test (Medic) at home last June 1, 2011 and lo and behold it was POSITIVE and since that time on I was not in my proper self coz it was unexpected considering our situation. To be PREGNANT is a no no thing to both of us! So I personally opted to have medical abortion, and because he is not that responsible, he seconded it!
    Last June 11, 2011 I had my first ever medical abortion...i had my first dose at 10pm swallowing 4 cytotec (200mcg) and inserting 2  (200 mcg) vaginally and after 2 hrs repeat it again (12mn) as told by the provider ( i just ordered the med online and sent it to me, i was just texting the provider during the whole course on what to do)...the provider was even mad at me coz i was very anxious coz there was no bleeding that was happening but i had cramping (tolerable) and pains in the abdomen (tolerable) and I even had the feeling of somewhat "burning inside my tummy"...at about 330am (June 12, 2011) after urinating, i noticed blood in the bowl, and i went back to rest again with a sanitary pad...i was just lightly bleeding the whole day of Sunday...and at about 430pm, I felt that something fell in the bowl -  just once (jelly like feeling that I normally felt when I have a heavy period) but the sad thing was I wasn't able to see what it was coz our CR was full of bubbles that time (newly cleaned). what I noticed was after that my bleeding stopped and i was just discharging...dark brown to black (looks like new colds) in my pad until the next day, June 12, 2011 and every time I urinate I saw "sand like dark" discharge on the bowl. The cramping, abdominal pain, pelvic pain and pain even just up my vagina continued but it was tolerable because I was able to work, but I'm still worried if I really had a successful abortion. By the way, I also experienced diarrhea, nausea but I never vomit during my intake but didn't last long (maybe just 6 hrs). Everyday I noticed that the discharge was lighter and now the 13th day (June 24) after it, its back to normal. I'm only worried now because  last June 21 (10 days after) I vomited in the morning even without taking anything yet and also, I got headache that day. From time to time since that day, I had feeling of nausea but not turn to vomit...my tummy is still bloated and still I had dark nipples..My question is: Was my medical abortion successful? I can't visit  a doctor to have an ultrasound because I'm afraid that others may know that I had an abortion...this thing is only between the two of us!  I am still consulting the provider and she is prescribing me antibiotics such as cefuroxime and coamoxiclav but I can't take any of them because I have a penicillin allergy..I am waiting for her reply of a medicine alternative but she is not replying late. Personally, I don't want to take any medicine anymore and right now I didn't even take anything yet since June 11 (my medical abortion). Normally, I have a daily dose of vitC (fernC) 1000mg but I stopped it. What should I do...please help...PLEASE...I need your immediate reply on this...I'm hoping!

ANSWER: You can repeat the Miso to make sure that everything passed.  We  have all our patients do that if they can not have an US.  The medication will not harm you.  You can place two under your tongue for 30 minutes and let them dissolve and repeat if no bleeding or cramping.  If you perform a pregnancy test it should be faint positive.

QUESTION: I can't anymore repeat the Miso for personal reasons...any thing that I can do in replace or what will happen to me now?

Answer
If this is a new pregnancy,when you have an ultrasound, it can be seen.  There is no other alternative.  These references  may help
