After effects from eptopic pregnancy

Hi there- 14 mths ago I had an eptopic pregnancy and had to have my tube removed as the tube had burst, it was an emergancy operation.
My doctor said that I could carry on trying for a baby when i felt ready, and that I would have as much chance as anyone else trying with one tube left. (No luck as yet).
I'm 25yrs old and since then I have had no sex drive, feel very depressed, my body feels very achy and old, and my periods are quite painful. And the past week I have been having pains on my left side above my pelvic area. I have had a period in the last two weeks so I dont believe it is another eptopic and not being so sure on what side my tube was removed im starting to worry that all these problems maybe due to the operation.
Could I have damaged tissue down there or are there any side effects which could arise from this kind operation?
Anyone know what Im talking about please reply.
Thanks, Jenny

I had a eptopic pregnancy & winded up having my ovary rupture & had it removed along with one of my tubes. I had to take chemo a few times and am still suffering from vaginal bleeding . Its been 5 months. It hasn't really let up. Haven't been back to a dr. & am tons of pain. I no longer live in the state where I had the surgery, what should I do?

I had an ectopic on 9/2/12. I was not even aware that i was pregnant. I called OB due to my spotting on and off for 3 weeks, and then sudden twinge pains. My preg test was positive, and an ultrasound revealed the pregnacy was in my right fallopian tube. OB sid i was about 7 weeks along and gave me 2 injections of MTX. I was in the hospital twice in one week with pain managment for horrible contrations that were debilitaing. A week and a half later my belly began to bloat, and i had a seizure. A short while after i couldnt breath without pain due to sharp pains in my shoulders. I was brought to the ER for the third time after my injection to get my 5th US, and a CT scan to rule out Pulmonary embolism. I was rushed to the OR due to the evidence of blood loss through US and blood tests. My tube had burst and there was 2 pints a blood in my belly, which explained my deferred pain in my shoulders. My Hemoglobin went from a 14 to a 5.8, and my hct was a 18. I needed two blood transfussions, and spent some time in the hospital. Apparently i was too far along to even receive MTX. It is now two months later and i have had two cycles. I am now around ovulation time and get severe sharp pains on my right side both months. I am hoping this isnt the only side i ovulate from. I had a miscarriage two years ago with evidence of blood and ovulation on my right side.  I have felt very down, overwhelmed, no sex drive, and no motivation. I am so sorry for any who has to go through this. My husband and i have a beautiful daughter whom is almost 5 years old and i am assuming that she was conceived on my left side. My right tube was removed, and i feel a little at peace that it cannot happen again in that tube. We pray that it is possible to have another child, but we are also very nervous due to the risk.

It's been almost a year now after my EP surgery. I had my left tube removed and ever since, I've been having alot of pain before my period. My sister had the same and she said," it takes a least 13-14 months to see signs of less pain". However, it is nornal, but if  you are experencing more pain than usual. Go see a doctor. I feel like it's getting worst for me since I'm getting older. I'm 35 yrs and still feel weak, tired and my tummy size and shape had not been the same. I also gained 10lbs after my surgery because I ate to relive my depressing and stress. I started going to the gym and changed my diet, but no change. I hope this helps. You're not alone!

I am worried. I have been bleeding for a little over two weeks with no pains or anything. I took a pregnancy test 6/15 (Friday) and was positive. I went to the ER on the following monday and found out I am RH negative. They gave me a shot and took my HCG levels they were 360.46. I went to an OB doctor thursday 3 days later and they didn't see anything in the uteris but I have a cyst on my left overy. My HCG levels that day only went up to 365.76. I am suppose to go back Monday morning to see whats going on. I am still bleeding but not as heavy and still no pains. They think it might be tubal. Would that be painful or not? Does anyone have advice. This is my first pregnancy.
