My ectopic experience would probably have been quite different if it wasn't for covid. At 6 weeks I experienced what I now know to be my right tube rupturing. It started when I got a head rush (very common for me) which was bad enough that I slightly blacked out and fell on my bum. Later that evenin...

I'm so sorry you're going through this. I also had a ruptured ectopic and emergency surgery with right tube removed. I felt very similar just after surgery. I'm now just over a month past it and I do feel so much better. Its up and down and obviously I'm still devastated but I've let go of feeling g...

I wish I would have had this opportunity! I would love to ask mine, what my other tube was like and if they could see any reason eg scarring or fibroids or endometriosis. How long they think I should try before having further investigations eg checking if other tube is blocked. Ask everything you ca...

I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through and your experience with the doctor. Mine was very similar, asking why I was upset!? It does unfortunately sound like a pregnancy of unknown location because of the very small increase in hcg. Its a really scary and horrible thing to go through. I hope ...

There's a great podcast about IVF experiences called big fat negative if you like that kind of thing! Jo - we had been trying for 5 months which felt like FOREVER but I know is pr...

I did yes, and they did check the other tube, just didn't bother telling me about it. I've requested to see my surgery notes but I haven't had them yet. It still feels so surreal, like it didn't really happen to me! My scars are healing up nicely but I should have been starting to get a bit of a bum...

Hi guys 👋 I also had tube removed 24th Sept (right one). Mine ruptured before I got to hospital, I thought I'd had a miscarriage so it was a bit of a nasty shock to find out that no it was in fact even worse! According to the drop in my bbt I should be getting my first period today. I'm dreading it ...
