Here again with my 2nd ectopic

[Beth duffin]

Hey really worried this time round as my blood has gone up by 50% on day 4 of having the injection and the hospital tomorrow for day 7 bloods. Just wanting to know if anyone has had this and its worked. And if I go in for surgery how long will I be I hospital for. As I have my husbands and sons birthday Saturday and on 10th

[LauraG]

My day 4 HCG doubled and then day 7bit had only gone down by 1. I was given another injection and then my day 4 was yesterday and it had gone down 10. I'm hoping it continues to go down another 15% by Saturday. Did you get your results today? Hope you're OK.

[Beth duffin]

I've just been to hospital this morning and waiting for my results this afternoon. Hope then have gone down by the 15% that is needed. I'm sorry for your loss

[LauraG]

Sorry you're going through this as well.
Hope we both get the % loss that we need. Xx

[Beth duffin]

If you don't mind asking what what did your levels start at ?

[LauraG]

44 then they went up to 51 in 48 hours so first injection was given. Day 4 they were 110 and then day 7 109. Second injection given and then day 4 (yesterday) 99. I'm praying they plummet so I can begin to process everything. What are your levels?

[Beth duffin]

My levels started at 1662 then went in 48 hours later and they dubbed to 2600. Then had injection and then they went up by 50% on day 4 witch is less than what It went up in a longer time witch im hoping is a good sign. Hope you can it over and done with. Is this your first one ?

[LauraG]

No, unfortunately I've had an ectopic with twins before and 3 misscarriages. I do have 2 healthy boys though (the youngest was born after my first ectopic).
I'm really hoping because my levels are so low it'll clear quickly. It's such a lot to deal with.
I'm sure they'd give you another injection of methotrexate and the nurse I spoke to yesterday said in her experience she's never known a second dose not work. Xx

[Beth duffin]

Aww this is my second one in just 1 year and 9 month. Its so hard to deal with i have a healthy son who is 9 on 10th December. I just don't wont to have op as I've already had my right tub removed. I glad you said that that's gave me so hope on if I do need another injection.

[LauraG]

As long as its not that painful and you're not showing signs of rupture they should offer you another injection. Hopefully you won't need it. Do you mind if I ask what the surgery is like? How long did it take you to recover? Xx

[Beth duffin]

It was not from a ectopic I had but Its the same sort of surgery key hole. It took aboutb6 week for me to recover properly. Surgery is one of the worst thing I have ever been thought, that's why I don't want to have to do that xx I hope you get the results you need. My thoughts are with you and your family. X

[LauraG]

Oh bless you. Sorry you had such a difficult time. Hope you get good results today. Sending lots of love. Xx

[LauraG]

Hi, I was just wondering if you'd got your results back yet? Hope it's good news for you.

[Beth duffin]
