Cvs test genetic abnormalities?

I'm very sorry that you had a bad experience! However, this is by NO means the normal outcome! Most women describe it as a menstrual cramp combined with the pain of giving blood. Yes, the needle does move up and down, that is necessary in order to get a biopsy of the placental tissue. Most women do not find it comfortable, of course, but do not find it painful. However, all people are different, experience pain differently, and all doctors might do this differently. I have been in with several of my patients who have had this procedure done and were terrified, but afterwords said it was nowhere near as bad as they expected.

(Also, I feel it is important to mention that GC's will always tell their patients the truth, we DO NOT lie to patients in order to get them to do ANYTHING. We are non-directive, meaning that it is our job to facilitate our patent's decision-making, NOT to talk then into, or even recommend, any procedure. GC's gain nothing by having their patients undergo CVS, so we have no reason to lie to patients to have them go through it.)

I hope you are able to relax for the rest of the week and feel better, and that in a week or 2 you'll get good news!

Even the nurse was crying? That's unprofessional..........
