Daughter needs help
Hi Everyone - update from last Weds.....
Went for next bolld test and scan yesterday. External scan showed nothing so she had a transvaginal. That showed nothing in the uterus but a 'suspicion' of something on the levyt fallopian tube. When her bloods came back they had only risen by just over 200 to 1386. She took the medical advice and was admitted on to ward. At 14.25 she went to theatre for laparascopy. Result was, it was an ectopic pregnancy but on her right side - not the left. Luckily she is OK today -verys sore and very low as you can imagine.
The good news is they managed to remove the ectopice by squeezing the tube so did not have to remove her tube. They say both tubes look OK but obviuoslt this guarantees nothing for the next time she is ready to try for a baby. The surgeon said it was a good thing they operated when they did - tube was likely to have soon ruptured and her abdomen was full of blood from internal bleeding. I'm lucky I still have my wonderful daughter.
She's terrified it will happen again. Would love to hear from anyone who has had recurrent ectopic pregnancies - what support did you get? Have you gone on to have a successful pregnanacy since?
Thanks for everyone's support. Please say a prayer and keep your fingers crossed for my dear, dear girl.
