I was wondering when do i start bleeding? I called my dr and he said I might not. Is that really true? I thought that I have read on this forum that everyone has bled afterwards. ???
i am so sorry you are going through this. I was more traumatised over the methotrexate then i was over the D&C. i think just the fact that it was all over so fast with the injection for something that took me so long to get there. I didnt have any side effects except for the cramping. I was very careful to not take any folic acid and to only ttc after 3 months. My thoughts are with you.
how come you had two injections? i still am only tired today. i havent even started bleeding yet. i am afraid that they will want to give me that shot again and i really dont want that in me.
I actually had mine this afternoon around 1:30 or so. I had to have two injections (to cover body surface area). I am so sorry that you and I both had to have this shot...it wasnt an easy decision for me to make. I was 5w3d but my HCG levels were only at 93. I am a little sleepy but otherwise no other symptoms.
Look for better days!
thanks for the advice, if i have questions i will know who to ask. so far i am feeling ok, just a little sleepy. :)
Sorry you have to go through this.
I don't recall any side effects, maybe a little dizzy the day of the first one, but that's about it.
I had to have 2 shots of metho to fix my ectopic, and my levels were never over 130! Don't be alarmed if you need two, it's pretty common.
Good luck to you.
I have been really sick so not on lately, but wanted to say how very sorry I am that this baby was ectopic. It's just not fair. I hope you won't lose hope and will try again! Kellie
Immediately after the shot, I felt a wave of dizziness but it only lasted for a couple of secs. After that, I don't think I had any side effectes. You want to stay away from vitamins and folic acid while you are on the methotrexate but after you hcg goes down to negative range you need to get your folic acid levels back up.
Good luck to you.. I'm guessing this is for an ectopic? So sorry about it all. I went through this back in feb/march, so if you have any other questions, let me know.
