Hi everyone, bear with me on this long winded tale but really needed to offload and Get some words of encouragement. Needless to say I know the inevitable outcome so I am not looking for miracle stories.
So last month at 5dpo I started with some odd symptoms, cramping, diarrhoea, sore boobs etc. got my hopes up but admittedly but 10dpo most symptoms had gone and I did a test BFN.
So on 13 dpo I did a first response and thought I could see a real squinter however several hours later AF began so ruled that out and though hey ho onto another month. AF was pretty normal, fairly light and lasted four days.
On Tuesday night CD 8 I began with achey legs. Like I had run a marathon but I couldnt rest them in any position. 10.30pm took painkiller and went to bed. At midnight I woke up with severe pain down my right hand side - abdomen down to leg. Went to a and e. The started to bleed. Docs did a pregnancy test- BFN. They admitted me onto a gynae unit.
They did a scan Wednesday morning where they spotted a mass 10mmx9mmx8mm and some fluid. The lady that did the scan said I wouldn't rule out an ectopic pregnancy but since you said your test was negative last night it is likely to be a piece of bowel.
Docs said we will release you (pain has totally, bleeding now like spotting) but we will do a hcg to rule out ectopic and ring of results show anything.
As I had had bfn 10dpo and 13 dpo and a period and bfn in a and e I didn't even imagine a positive hcg result.
Doc rang me that afternoon and conformed HCG is 82. He claimed that is low for what should be a 4wk3day pregnancy and so they believe I am miscarrying or I have an ectopic pregnancy.
I have to go back Friday am for another HCG to see whether it has dropped or risen. Only problem is I am due to fly to Egypt Friday afternoon so if it's an ectopic I will be unable to go on holiday :-(. I am in total
Shock that I was even pregnant although it does prove my instincts were right around 5/6/7/8 dpo.
