2nd time and scared

Hi everyone,

I’ve just found out I am 5 weeks and am having bleeding and pain on previous eptopic side :frowning: I have had a scan and as of yet they can’t see anything only ‘something’ on my previous eptopic side, as I am having pain and bleeding I’m so scared to go through this again. My eptopic was 6 months ago and I was treated with methotrexate and have had ‘ghost’ pains every month since, has anyone else experienced this??

I have my fingers crossed for a miracle but I feel that’s clutching straws ;(

Hi Jdex,

I’m really sorry to hear you’re having such a stressful time. It’s horrible having to wait and see with these things. Especially when you’ve had an ectopic before, it must be so much more stressful and upsetting not knowing!

How long do you have to wait before they will scan you again or they monitoring your bloods? x

Their testing bloods again tomorrow I guess it’ll indicate what’s going on whether I’m miscarring or eptopic, the scan indicated there was something but they can’t tell if it’s a new eptopic or from the previous one but I had my bloods taken all the way to 0 so there shouldn’t be anything old?? guess that’s what’s got them stumped plus the pain doesn’t help :frowning:

Are u ok?

Ugh god that’s awful. It’s terrible to be left in limbo not knowing what’s happening. Hopefully they will be able to tell you tomorrow exactly what’s going on. And worst case scenario if it is another ectopic hopefully it’s early enough for you to have the Mtx shot again.

I’ll keep my fingers crossed that everything will work out okay tomorrow. You’re right to “clutch at straws” as you said until you know what’s going on. I’d do the same because you’d never know! There’s always hope and it’s good to be positive until you’re told otherwise.

I’ll be thinking of you and will keep my fingers crossed for you that all will be okay for you… Do you have someone to look after you there tonight? x

Well here we go again confirmed today 2nd ectopic :evil: my hcg levels are low and wentfrom 71 to 42 and back up to 52!! I was hoping to miscarry naturally but looks as tho il need another jab :cry:

Has anyone’s levels done this and not needed an injection?

Aaah Jdex,

I’m so so sorry for your loss. I’m so sad to hear that it didn’t work out this time for you. It’s such a sad and horrible thing to have to go through again…

I never had the Mtx shot so I can’t advise… Sorry I can’t be of more use…

My thoughts are with you… Know that we’re all here always to talk… Mind yourself xxx
