Let's get a sticky post up. A sticky post is basically a post that will stay at the top of the forum all the time: it will not move. I took this from the August 2009 community and tweaked it a little. Just copy & paste with your own answers!

The last ob I went to discovered I had persistent hcg do to a miscarriage. I still wasn't getting any results from ob, so I decided to go see a RE. RE suggested to have a sonohysterogram since I still had hcg in my system. Sure enough when the doctor went inside of the uterus I had left over tissue from the miscarriage from 5 yrs ago!
