Had an MCA today (a measurement of the speed of Geo's blood taken by ultrasound. Faster blood = thinner blood = more anemic. Been going at least once a week now for a few months in addition to regular OB appointments and bi-weekly blood draws... phew). Not liking the numbers that they're getting...
We have tried mightily to see the same doctor each week because it is important to keep the technique for the measurements consistent in order to establish a trend in the readings rather than jumping at a single high measurement. This has proved impossible, despite our best efforts.
We had 'Dr. Technically Adept But Large Ego' (let's call him Dr. TABLE) which is who we have tried to see exclusively. Last two weeks have been 'Dr. Totally Inept But Somehow Involved' (Dr. TIBSI? I'm clearly not gonna put too much effort into this).
Dr. TIBSI tends to read very high when he can manage to get a reading. I didn't think that Dr. TABLE was going to have the readings go down and cause a discrepancy. Not liking where this is going.
Well, now they want me in twice a week...
