triple screen results and ageFrom: Trish (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri, 30 Aug 2002 18:24:04 -0500 (CDT)
I will be 38 at delivery, my ob called today to tell me that I have an elevated risk of downs which she put at 1 in 233 from my triple screen results. My question is, is the blood test result actually abnormal, or is it just my age pulling up my risk level. I have had two ultrasounds at 7 and 11 weeks which dated pregnancy a little over a week apart (lmp falls in between these two), would this discrepency be enough to throw off triple screen results? Also, I would like to avoid amnio if possible and am wondering how accurate level2 ultrasound is at diagnosing downs? Thanks, Trish
