Hi
Ive been in hospital for that last week following an ectopic pregnancy. I was 8wks and had no danger symptoms at all till I woke in the night in extreme pain. I was rushed into hospital and has to undergo emergancy surgery as they discovered I had been bleeding internally for a good while. The surgery itself was quite traumatic as I lost a lot of blood along with a fallopian tube. It took me a good few days to feel remotely better physically as I needed more transfusions.
Now Im home and a bit stronger physically Im finding things quite difficult emotionally. The few times Ive felt well enough to leave the house and be in public, Ive suddenly burst into tears.
My consultant wants to see me in a few months so he can check my remaining tube before we try again for another baby but Im so worried that those tests will show that there is a problem there.
I was really just hoping that there were some ladies out there who may have been in a similar situation and could offer some advice or tell me their experience. Things seem all very sad and worrying right now.
