Jenn,

I know that BUs and SUs are confused often, but what specifically

made your doc think that it was SU after all? I'm in the middle of

that process of diagnosis, although my late loss of twins affirms the

thinking that I have a BU. In my 3D and MRI images, it looks like

the muscle at the fundus comes down in a little dip, while the

cavities have sort of distinctive separate chambers at the top. It

was recommended that we try again. Just wondering what you saw in

your images that made you think SU, although the two m/c affirm the

SU. I'm so sorry that you had two losses.

Thanks,

Laurie
