Just curious because mine was cornual and judging by the amount of medical people I had surrounding me at the time I was admitted and those who kept popping in while I was recovering to look at my notes and talk to me, I don’t think they had seen too many at that particular hospital.
One particular doctor actually managed to make me laugh out loud in the days after it happened (no easy feat I can tell you) because she had left for the day about half an hour before I was admitted and she used to come round and tell me how disappointed she was that she’d missed it all!!
always nice to know you might be a medical mystery
really surprised to see all the plausible places! one would think it to be a wonder if it actually goes like it should!
i heard the abdominal was most common, but from your poll it seems otherwise?
left tube as well it was for me btw.my right is playin hide and seek behind my liver and i don t know what to think of that. so lefty takes care of all.
please could someone explain cornual? (sp?) mine was in the fingery bits at the beginning of the tube, where they go over the ovary (cant remeber the name, something like fimbrals or something) which catagory would this fall into
Cornual is the point at which the fallopian tube joins the uterus, I really have no idea which category yours would fall into I’m sorry. Maybe Izzie or one of the hosts would be able to explain?
They thought mine was somewhere near my ovary but they were not sure so I chose unknown. They said it may have been behind a pregnancy cyst but then again they were not sure
mine was cornual. the dr reconed that it was in the left tube and that i miscarried and the placenta attached itself in between the tube and the uterus. he came to that conclusion because if my hcg results droping and then rising quite significantly and then when they did the laperoscopy they could only see the placenta. doc said hed never came across anything like it in 30 yrs of practicing. i was treated with metho
This may sound sooooo silly but i’m unsure :roll: all i know is it was left sided. When i had my internal scan they said i had a small mass in my left side.
I didn’t realise cornual were so rare. Mine was too on the left side. It was the second ectopic on that side and there was just a stump left there - a super sucking stump? Caused by the first ectopic I think?
Mine is in my cervix. I was told it is rare. i’m the 2nd cervical ectopic to be treated in Exeter and the 5th case my consultant has treated. Second MXT inj appears to be working.
I have had 3 EP’s 2 tubal and one cornual.When i had my cornual one I was told it was a 1 in 100,000 chance of it being in the stump of the tube and that it was very rare. Mmmm… i always seem to fall into this catagory!
