Possible miscarriage?

I am 8 weeks pregnant and have been suffering extremely painful cramps, lower back pain, and pressure in my rectum since yesterday afternoon. Paracetamol isn't helping at all and I feel terrible although I haven't had any bleeding. Is if possible this is an early sign of a miscarriage and bleeding will start soon? The pain is so bad I phoned EPAU, they have said they won't see me unless I'm bleeding. I had a scan about 2 weeks ago because of pain and to rule out ectopic pregnancy as I've had one previously. Has anyone else has similar symptoms and what was the outcome?

Hey @Tinkerbell19 I recently had a MC 4.5 weeks ago and the only signs I had was very light spotting followed a few days later by the worse backache I've had to the point which woke me up however, following the backache when I woke up, I'd gone to the toilet and clotted.

Sometimes it's possible for a miscarriage to happen without any signs of bleeding but, it could also be your body expanding and getting used to the fact that you are pregnant.

If you're worried, ring 111 and they'll point you in the best place. Hope everything's ok x
