I was hoping maybe some of you may be able to help me at this time.
I spent 2 weeks checking HCG every 48 hours and on 31st Dec I spent new years in hospital and had a Methotrexate injection.
On my day 4 bloods I had more than double and gone from 2600hcg to over 5000. I was admitted immediately back to hospital and on January 6th I had a scan the pregnancy was located on my left tube and it had a strong heartbeat.
The only option was surgery to remove my tube. This was 11 days ago. I had bloods done two days post surgery and hcg had dropped near to 1000.
The hospital said do a at home pregnancy test 7 days later to confirm hcg had dropped to zero which I did yesterday and it is very much positive and reading two weeks pregnant.
I have to go back to hospital tomorrow for more bloods now. I am scared. The tube and all was removed so I am not sure how this is possible they also seem baffled.
I was 7 weeks 4 days and it was very close to ruptured if not just slightly ruptured is there any chance there is tissue leftover ?
Any similar situations or advice would be so welcome.
I am so sorry for your loss and that you are going through this worrying time. I am not medically qualified and do not know the particular details of your medical history. However, it is good you are returning to have your bloods done. This will confirm a pregnancy. Is there a possibility you are pregnant?
I would just remind you to be kind to yourself during this time. We are here for you during this journey and will support you however we can.
With good wishes,
