I WRITE THIS STORY TO GIVE YOU ALL HOPE!
In january 2006 i suffered an ectopic pregnancy after an early pregnancy clinic failed to recognise it after numerous blood tests and 2 scans, i had been bleeding for a week before my doctor referred me, i was seen on a monday and had a scan and a blood test and then told to return on wednesday for a blood test and a scan on thursday, after the scan on thursday i was told i had suffered a miscarriage and should return on saturday morning for a further blood test i still hadnt recieved the results of my test the previous day, come friday morning i had heard from the nurse and she told me that the hormone levels in my blood hadnt doubled as normal but had increased so i definatley had to return in the morning for a further one, come later on that day i was in so much pain which i called the hospital about and they just said it was my body dealing with the miscarriage, and to still come in the morning, the following morning i woke up and somehow managed to get up despite the excruiciating pain i was and attempt to walk to the bathroom i didnt reach the bathroom as i collapsed luckily my mum was walking out of her bedroom and helped me to the bathroom as soon as i reached it i collapased again and an ambulance had arrived and took me to a & e where i waited 2 hrs to be seen by a doctor, when the doctor came he told me i neeeded a laparoscopy, i consented to this but i wasnt moved to a ward for another 4 hours by which time my left fallopian tube had ruptured i was operated on and when i came round i was told i was very lucky and i had recieved a huge blood transfusion. when the dcotor came round the following day he had explained that he had removed the entire left tube and explained that as i suffered from polycystic ovaries that i definatley need ivf if i was to concieve in the future, 2 months later my boyfriend now husband was deployed to afghanistan for 6 months on his return we were married and i fell pregnant with my son who is now 18 months old and 3 months after giving birth to him o fell pregnant with my daughter now 6 months i had 2 problem free pregnancies but still had to attend epc for the blood tests and scans.
