Hi there. You have posted on the bottom of a 3 year old thread, so you might find you get more responses from starting your own post.
It sounds like you may want to see your Dr. again. You can also try another HPT, but if you suspect an etopic pregnancy, it is important to seek medical attention. Good luck.
i went to the dr and she thaught i had an ectopic pg i had an aultra sound done and they could not find anything not on the blood test and not on the home tests. my boobs hurt and i have pains on the left side of my belly i have heart burn and was 4 days late 2 months ago with a 3 day period and has been the same. when i went for an aultra sound the same day i saw the dr was 2 months ago. could it have been to early or cout be something else.
i have 3 lost and i am having one now when u use to to be pregnant i use to get a pain but i am not and my doc told me that when the pain is
there is no good but when no pain that mean its in the right cube pls help me i need to know my e-mail address is ***@**** i need some answer but i have to vist my doc on 7 th of march but i am still worry i was tying for 6 yrs
I had an ectopic 20 years ago. I had to have surgery. The recovery was long. I did have a son 4 years ago - it did not effect my fertility - but I hear it can in some people. They didn't have the meds back then. I'm sorry you have to go through this.
Thanks for the advice and support! There seems to be little hope that this is a viable pregnancy, so sadly, I'm hoping it's "only" a miscarriage. But I will heed your advice and take care of the ectopic immediately if needed.
I have not had an ectopic but wanted to wish you luck..you are in mythoughts and prayers
I am sorry your going through this. I had an ectopic in my tube at 6 weeks. The u/s tech did see the "bulge" and I was scheduled for surgery because the shot doesn't always work and could take 2 doses. They didn't want me to rupture so they sent me to surgery. On my way to surgery, it ruptured!! They took my left tube out. So like Tanker Chic said, do not prolong your treatment, if it is ectopic take care of it right away so it doesn't cause further damage.
Again, I am sorry your going through this...take care
I had an ectopic back in feb/march... The dr never did see it in my tube but he did look for it on multiple occasions. The treatment is a shot of methotrexate... My advice is this.. I got pg from IUI so we had been trying a long time, and I really did not want to give up hope and take the shot.. I kept thinking just a couple more days maybe it will show up.. and besides he never has seen it in the tubes.. After many tears we decided to take the shot.. for me it did not work.. I had two shots each a week apart... first one at 6wks pg the second at 7wks pg.. at 8wks pg my tube started to rupture and I had to go to the ER and have surgery.. I lost my right tube..
So as hard as it is to face, I would not put off treatment.. If hcg's are low and/or not doubling and they don't see anything in the uterus.. take the shot before it is too late.. You really don't want to lose your tube.. or worse.. I'm really sorry.. I do understand how hard this is..
I don't know how long you have been trying, but I will tell you what my RE told me and he was RIGHT.. as much as it doesn't seem like it, this is a good sign.. The fact that you got pg means your chances of getting pg again are really good.. I'm 19wks today..
Take care.. and again, i'm really sorry.. ((hugs))
I've had 3 mc but none of them were ectopic so I can't really comment on that. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry you have to go through this.
