Had an MMR today and they asked if I had been sterilised then said they think - think they can see a surgical clip and I am really worried.

They said after some surgeries its common to leave them in, but I am positive they would have told me?

worth talking to your GP. They'll have all your notes and be able to tell you x

my gp didnt even know I had a section at my 6 week check up.

my gp didnt even feel my lump when i went to tell them about it, and sent me on a wild goose chase down scans when he should have felt it and known it was in the wall of stomach!

doesnt fill one with much faith
