Urine culture read: “Results suggest gross contamination/inappropriate handling. Repeat 10000 CFU per ml Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B). CDC recommends pregnant women w/group B Streptococcus bacteriuria receive intrapartum chemoprophylaxis.” PCP never discussed pregnancy. B/W shows low blood count. PCP says urine & bloodwork are fine. Wk later each time I’d urine/wipe, brownish/yellowish/light pinkish mucous. Then bled heavy w/severe cramps (doubled over), very dark brownish/red blood w/heavy clots, vomit/lightheaded. PCP says ultrasound normal. Shows retroverted (tipped) uterus, nabothian cysts in cervix, endometrial stripe, fluid in right adnexa & cul-de-sac. Unclear what any of this means. Tech performed test on an empty bladder. Had 2 test, one was to be NPOx6h and then I was to fill-up with liquids wait 1hr, then have pelvic U/S. Tech said I didn’t need to fill-up, even had me empty my bladder during the pelvic U/S. I always thought the bladder was to be full for pelvic U/S.

➔ Pregnancy
Please note: I haven’t seen GYN. A brief history: At the onset of this, I gained 10 lbs in 3 days, then another 10 within 2 weeks, but my weight is still within normal limits and I am not overweight. The initial weight gain started to drop, but my stomach is still swollen. I’ve never had a small stomach, even when I was in a size 1. My stomach has been “saggy-like’ with a pouch since I had my first child. Even when I have gained weight and was overweight, it still had that “saggy-like” look to it. Now it has a “round/full like” look to it. I look about 5-6 months pregnant. Even if I were pregnant, it would only be 6 weeks or less. I’m still experiencing lower abdominal cramping with some back cramping, spotting, nausea, vomiting lightheadedness and sensitivity to smell. At first I thought it was my gallbladder, but I have no gallstones, although I do experience gallbladder attacks. Could it be something I am missing?
