That's dreadful. If I were you, I would go to my GP and demand to be referred to another specialist who can deal with your problems. I would also be lodging a formal complaint about that man!
I have a similar problem in that I have had numerous surgeries for cancer and have had 2 miscarriages in the past and my gynae consultants either don't know or don't care about that or the impact it may have on my pregnancy.
Don't put up with it honey!

Hello,
Its late and I just can't stop being worried. I had two very painful and poorly delt with miscarriages. The first time I was told I had a miscarriage the day before my wedding and was told to just get over it and enjoy the day by the Dr. The second time I was told stop wasting our time and just get on with it! I am now fortunatly 28 weeks pregnant (after a long struggle and thanks to some wonderful people from a charity called Foresight). I went to see the consultant yesterday about mode of delivery as I was worried. I have had two spinal discectomies in 2006 and was told I may in the future need the bottom two vertebra in my spine fused, so I thought people need to know about this re delivery. Ideally I would love to give birth naturally but worry that it could cause more damage to my spine and lead to me being flat out for 6 months and having to have another operation. The consultant basically said my spine was none of his concern and I would have a normal delivery he didn't even want to know what had happened and what surgery I had, had. Then he had the cheek to refer me to my Gp for depression cos I got upset that he wouldn't listen to my concerns. I just so desperatly want the best for my little baby, my husband and i have battled for so long for this baby we just want it all to go as right as possible. I just feel so upset and cross and anxious not sure what to do next.


Thanks wasn't sure what to do, so went to the GP and have got an appointment next week with a different - lady consultant. Fingers crossed. It was nice to know I wasn't over reacting.
