when does it get easier?!

I am just past 3 months post surgery for eptopic. I thought I would start to feel normal again by now.. But I don't.. I feel like a massive rollercoaster.. Going from a massive high and manic state to deep depression.. Sometimes it gets so bad I think about suicide.. I've never really had the guts t...

Re: Scared

As far as I'm aware, even though you only had intercourse 5 weeks ago, they date your pregnancy to the first day of your last period.. For example, if your period is the 1st of the month and you don't have sex til the 12th, they will still date it from the 1st.. I think your body is just expelling w...

first af after ep

So yesterday I started my first af since my surgery 4 and half weeks ago. I am so so so emotional which for me is a weird concept. But my question is, does anyone else get pins and needles in both their legs constantly. It wont disappear and I'm wondering why?

Re: Physical recovery after eptopic surgery

I had surgery 11days ago and had my right fallopian tube removed, the doctor advised me no exercise for two weeks and then you can start gentle exercises, although not too strenuous for six weeks until fully recovered. I hope this helps and I'm sorry for your loss. All the best x

Re: how to move on from surgery

Thank you for your reply and I am sorry for your loss too.. I got rushed in so quick as I had bleeding into my abdomen which made the pain a hundred times worse. I went into autopilot mode. I couldn't think of anything to ask the doctors except agree and sign the paperwork so I feel like I don't kno...

how to move on from surgery

I was 4 days late when I started my period. It started out as spotting which confused me as I thought I had pregnancy symptoms but thought bleeding was my period. My bleeding never stopped so after 14 days I went to see my GP. After a pregnancy test, internal examination, and swabs she diagnosed me ...
