My Nonprofit Reviews

I was so impressed when I found this website. It is a tremendous resource as well as support system. I emailed and asked for the Maine Doctors List as had not been feeling well and did not realize the amount of information available. It is horrible that this drug has caused so much pain for people who took it, having no idea that it didn't even work. It was a money maker for the drug companies. My mother took DES when she was pregnant with me and I believe it was later on in her pregnancy. I was premature at 36 weeks. She had two miscarriages following and was heartbroken, especially when a nurse botched an opportunity (flushed the specimen instead of sending for analysis as her dr. had ordered) that would have allowed her to obtain more specific information. After reading the available information, I can't help but wonder if there was anything "wrong" with my mothers ability to carry a child or if it was caused or worsened in relation to her DES ingestion while pregnant with me.
