Untitled Notes For Parents Being diagnosed with TTTS can be the beginning of an emotional and confusing time.
Many parents go through diagnosis and treatment and end up with healthy twins.
It would be wonderful, of course, if this could happen in every single case, but sadly it does not. Each case of TTTS can be different, and as your consultant will state, there are no guarantees of success when you agree to undergo treatment. Sometimes a course of treatment can appear to be progressing well, only for additional problems to manifest themselves. Your consultant will be available to answer any questions you may have during your treatment, and he or she should be your first contact for any concerns. Every hospital has the equipment to suspect a problem and if they have doubts then should refer you to a fetal medicine specialist.
