Could it be a cyst? I had severe pains on my left side with my last pregnancy and found out that I also had a cyst. I had a tubal pregnancy and the cyst ruptured and I had to have emergency surgery. If the pains continue I would keep going back to the hospital. If you have a HCG level that isn't rising even after a week then you probably have a non-viable pregnancy or a tubal. I would go back to the ER and demand they find out what is going on!! The hospital I went to doesn't know their A$$ from a hole in the ground so they let me lay there 5 hours without even checking on me and I ended up having 2 blood transfusions because I was bleeding internally for so many hours.
Good Luck to You!!

Thanks Patty,
We though that it maybe a cyst as well but nothing showed up. I'm just greatful that I have a Doc that believes me that something is going on, have the feeling that ER docs think I'm crazy at this point. Feeling pretty scared and sad these days. I definately will keep on top of it. Hopefully they will be able to treat it early enough.
Good Luck to You and keep us posted on how you are doing!!
All the Best!!

Did your doctor check your ovaries? I had severe pains on my right side, strong enough to make me start throwing up from the pain. My doctor saw my right ovary larger than my left on an ultrasound and, after I started throwing up from the pain, did an emergency laparoscopic surgery to find an ovarian torsion (right ovary twisted itself around and was cutting the blood supply off to itself). My doctor untwisted the ovary and saved it. Hope they find out the cause of your pain soon, good luck!
It wasn't meant to be this time, My HCG level is back to 0 and the untrasound showed no sign of pregnancy. Sad, but we'll keep trying. I was diagnosed with a bladder infection and we are keeping our fingers crossed that this is the cause of the pain (had them before but never have pain with them). If the pain isn't gone in a week, they will do further testing. Thanks for your support!
