Thank you for the imformation, I certainly appreciate it. I do however
have one more question.......how long should the spotting last in
duration? I have been spotting for about 7 days now and it is still
happening. I am expected to get my period in another 5 days. Should I
expect to still get another normal period as well now?
Thanks again,
Meredith
