Re: Being vile to my husband

Yasdnil, Don’t beat yourself over this. Just tell him, how sorry you are now! You are going through a very difficult time (probably he is as well), Christmas can be stressful even without the added hormones and problems. I’m sure he was there to support you and saw/know what you’re going through. Yo...

Re: Christmas cheers and EP

Thanks! I can’t believe it that I literally had 1 day of pain/bleeding with this (even though I was bleeding inside). Also that my body wouldn’t skip a beat! I am so sorry that most people here suffered so much! How are you doing EctopicPUL? What’s your next step? Have you thought about your next st...

Re: Ttc again ovulating soon

How do you know which side are you ovulating from? Can you have scans just before ov to check?

Re: My recent loss and questions

My hcg gone down to 10 from 400 in 10days, expectant management. My period came as usual/expected, like nothing happened!! I’m well surprised! My scabs are still really thick and itchy, so I think we are going to wait a bit more, I need to see the dr and I want to be ‘discharged’ before we have sex.

Re: Folic acid

Hi,
I was on a low folate diet, my hcg is 10 now, how much folic acid should I take? Do I start with a higher dose and go down to normal? I will wait 2 cycles before ttc.
Thanks

Re: Thanks to the Ectopic Trust

It is so nice to find that I am not alone with this, and just check that others had same feelings/symptoms. It is really helpful! I haven’t had a phone call yet, but I think I will about “next step” as the drs don’t seem to help with that much...
Thanks you and Merry Christmas!

Re: Christmas cheers and EP

Merry Christmas! So my HCG was down to 10 yesterday (10 days after + test) from 400! I’m extremely proud and relieved! Best Christmas present! I think I’m out of the rapture danger zone now! I think the ‘no folates’ diet and drinking lots of water helped. Also my period came on the expected day, lik...

Re: My recent loss and questions

Hi, I had laparoscopy on 13/12, the tube wasn’t raptured, so it stayed. Dr said he would’ve taken it out as chances that it was already bad (thus the ectopic there) are high. I had no methotrexate either, we are doing expectant management. My numbers are dropping, next blood test is on 24/12. My wou...

Re: Pain post expectant management - cyst?

My tube wasn’t raptured, so nothIng was taken out. They only flushed the blood out. Also had no methotrexate, doing expectant management. Next blood test is on 24th, but result probably just after Xmas. I only have tiny tiny brown discharge now and few twitches and aches, but not pain really. I hope...

Re: Pain post expectant management - cyst?

Just keep in mind 2 months is not much to heal completely! I’m ‘lucky’ that I’m not in pain (had 1day pain in total so far) and hoping it can heal alone without pain. But than it’s only been a week since surgery and I haven’t passed anything yet (also confused if I should or shouldn’t?) I’ve been ou...

Oh EctopicPUL, I feel for you! You are just about hoping the pain is over than you get another load!
How are you doing? Do you have someone supporting you on a day to day basis?

Re: 2nd Ectopic this year

Hello Tosh, I am sorry that you are here again! I can’t really help with this, I’m sorry this is my first EP. My tube didn’t rapture, but the dr wanted to take it out as he said, it would only reduce my chance of getting pregnant by 25-30%, but as most likely my tube was damaged before it would rais...

Re: Christmas cheers and EP

Thank you Karen and EctopicPUL, I will have a glass of wine or Baileys some nights. I’ll have a blood test on the 24th so hopefully I’ll have very low hcg by than. Today I have had a few mild shooting pains, but they gone as quick as they came. But I feel a bit sore kind of behind my hip bone and I ...

Christmas cheers and EP

Hi all, We were TTC for 11 months, although did not know about pregnancy as I have had my period. On 10/12 (cd10) went to A&E as I was bleeding and had bad dull cramps on right side, also had nervy shoulder pain the day before. A&E did wee test, which came back negative, and Dr said it is ju...
