2x methotrexate and then surgery. My questions

Post by Murray2000 »

Hi everyone just want to ask a few questions about what’s ‘normal’ after 2x methotrexate injections and surgery, I’m 19 and wasn’t planning pregnancy. The methotrexate failed to work and I started internally bleeding from my right Fallopian tube.
I’m just over 2 weeks post op and 3 weeks from methotrexate, I’m still in quite abit of pain and finding it especially difficult to pass urine, I had a catheter fitted for a few hours. I went to my gp around a week after my operation and he treated me for kidney/uti infection but there’s no improvement at all. I went to a&e with pain in my right side again similar pain to before my operation to be sent home after the doctor said that I was being sensitive with a poor pain threshold and also said to a nurse that it was elective for me to have surgery. I’m completely confused by everything and finding it difficult to process my emotions.
I feel like I haven’t been told much of what happens next, I’m still feeling dizzy every time I stand up and loosing my eyesight, I can hardly walk when I wake up with a full bladder. I just want to know if this is all normal?
