I am 5 weeks pregnant and only 2 months post salpingectomy of my R tube. I have had 3 ectopics in the past, the 1st in my L tube (the 1 I have remaining) and 2 in the R tube.
It was a huge surprise to be pregnant so quickly after the surgery but on Thursday I saw some pink blood after I went to the toilet but didn’t worry too much. Yesterday I started passing old brown blood and I still am now. I have a scan booked for Wednesday but I am so scared I am going to lose another baby through an ectopic or miscarriage although more likely ectopic as I’ve had so many. I did another pregnancy test this morning and it was positive but it would be even if it was an ectopic. I am so worried. Has anyone else experienced this? I have not got pain as such but am so aware of all the twinges especially around my scars. I didn’t really feel any pain or anything with my previous ectopics, they were found on scans.
Ferguson3, I am so sorry to read this. You are right, life is so cruel at times. I urge you to get to your nearest EPU or hospital to get checked out. I hope you have good support around you at the moment. Take care of yourself, I am thinking of you, and am here to chat whenever you need xxx
I’m sorry, Ferguson3. Life isn’t fair, that’s for sure. Maybe you should get checked at the emergency department? Hopefully they can do a scan today and let you know at least if it is in your uterus or not? I will be thinking of you.
Thank you, I feel so drained from it all. Have got in touch with my consultant and there is no one at the hospital that can scan today so have a scan booked for tomorrow morning. Hate that place, you have to sit surrounded by pregnant ladies who are having their antenatal appointments. One day it will hopefully be me waiting for my antenatal appointment …
So had a scan today and have a non viable uterine pregnant AND what they think is a left sided ectopic pregnancy. Just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse. My 4th ectopic and a misscarriage all in one hit. To say I’m devastated is an understatement. At least HCG levels only 1276 so not too high, every cloud has a silver lining and all that…
I haven’t been on here for a while, just trying to get through each day as it comes and a very stressful job. So it was definitely a uterine pregnancy and also an ectopic. I miscarried the uterine pregnancy early on after the initial scans but the ectopic is still hanging on after what seems like forever. HCG levels now 116 and having weekly checks. Just feel I can’t move on. Desperate to exercise as that helps with my stressful job but told too risky. Not sure steps from here but they’re now mentioning natural killer cells, anyone know anything about that?
