Hey, so this is my story. Had coil removed February 2019, had first period April time. Been ttc ever since. Had some Dodgy lines a few months ago. Last month December I had a positive frer a week before af was due. Had a couple more Faint lines throughout the week also some negatives. Had a gynaecologist appointment on the 19th , had internal scan etc etc not to do with pregnancy but my endo. He scanned my womb and everything so I know I wasn't pregnant well he never mentioned it. I was due period 20th, bang on time although after scan I was spotting so I think he brought it on a bit. Anyway very heavy bleed for half a day on the 20th and then spotting for 2 More days after that. Nothing like a real period at all. Ever since haven't really had any signs of ovulation or anything haven't tracked this month. Just dtd for 4 days in a row leading up to new year and then on the 3rd. Anyway tonight whilst sitting alone I thought I'd do a test.. don't know why and it was only an internet cheapie. But there's a faint line? If I ovulated when I should have (like the same as last month) this could only make me 6-8dpo maybe before I don't actually know this month at all. Photo is attached. Do you think that's possible or should I count this an an Evap or false positive? I will test again later after I've held for another couple hours. Any help would be great. I am not getting hopes up as wayyyy to early I think. It's a squinter but there and within a min or two xx

How bizarre! Maybe try again tomorrow with FMU

Mich2020 · 26/01/2020 17:50

In agony last night and today again, I have pink spotting (the tiniest amount) on my other 8/9 days post there's a tmi photo, but have to show that it's not my period and just spotting at the moment. Periods never start like this.. so confused at what's happening at the moment x

OP posts:
calimommy · 26/01/2020 19:38

If you are in pain and have spotting I'd be very concerned about ectopic. Go to the dr and discuss it with them ASAP x

Mich2020 · 26/01/2020 20:18

I have been on the internet quite a bit researching today @calimommy it says you should get a strong positive even if it's ectopic.. I didn't have a strong positive just that very faint frer. I don't know what to think. The spotting hasn't carried on it's stopped.x

Sammyclaire22 · 26/01/2020 21:15

Sorry to jump on but @mich2020 you dont always get a positive if it's ectopic, (I did but very late on, and after a normal period) and if you are In pain follow pp advice and get checked out.
Not all symptoms follow classic ones either (my pain was central and similar to food poisoning cramps with no vaginal bleeding)

Mich2020 · 26/01/2020 21:22

@Sammyclaire22 thank you. I will definitely get into the drs tomorrow if I can get an appointment. The spotting has stopped. I have taken some more painkillers and now tucked up in bed. If period doesn't come full on overnight then I know something is up. The cramps are left sided and lower back feels like someone has stood on me and crushed me. I have had a few weird poos over the last day or two (sorry tmi) and haven't really been feeling hungry so not eaten like I usually do. Kept getting hot flushes this afternoon but that seems to have passed now. What symptoms did you experience if you don't mind me asking xx

OP posts:
calimommy · 26/01/2020 21:44

The pain your describing is not normal xx definitely go seek advice tomorrow x

calimommy · 26/01/2020 21:47

*you're

TripleASays · 26/01/2020 22:04

I agree! Definitely worth a trip to your GP in the morning. Hope you get some answers soon x

Mich2020 · 26/01/2020 22:12

Thank you both. Will update tomorrow. I have to go to work, trying not to have another sickness otherwise I'll be called for investigation (3rd sickness in 6 months). Will have to see how this pain is though obviously health more important than work.xx

Mich2020 · 27/01/2020 12:33

Real heavy bleeding now. Still in agony with my left hand side near my pelvis. A trip to A&E after work I think just to check nothing wrong. Shouldn't be this painful. Can't even lift my leg up off the floor. How's everyone doing? Xx

OP posts:
Sammyclaire22 · 27/01/2020 13:43

Go to a&e now!!!! And get someone to take you- dont drive. Or if you can't walk at all call an ambulance.

Seriously, I was hours from dying and didn't even know. Single sided pain is a classic ectopic symptom and the bleeding could be a fallopian tube rupture like mine. I had bad internal bleeding only found via ultrasound and they had me in theatre 2 hours from when I walked in the door.
If its not am ectopic it could be something else, but severe bleeding and pain is NOT to be ignored! Worst case it's a bad period, but it's still far safer to get checked out!
And as a side note pregnancy related illness doesn't count on sickness records- you are protected by law x

calimommy · 27/01/2020 15:11

Have you been seen yet @Mich2020 ?

calimommy · 27/01/2020 20:49

I keep checking for an update, I hope you were seen and are ok @Mich2020 x

CatEnabler · 27/01/2020 20:53

@Mich2020 I'm sorry I've only just caught up with posts here... I hope you're OK!!! Are you still waiting to be seen? You poor thing, very scary, I hope you'll be alright xxx Flowers

Mich2020 · 28/01/2020 06:44

Sorry guys. After 7 long hours in hospital at emergency department, they didn't do much tbh. They took some bloods , felt my stomach and back. I have to have a CT scan either today or tomorrow depending on when they phone. Dr thinks it could be kidney stones or a cyst on my ovary that could have burst. She didn't seem overly worried. Told me I could stay in for stronger pain relief overnight or as long as I promised to go back if pain got worse I could go home. Well after more painkillers at home I managed to doze off last night and slept all night 🙂 but now dp alarm been going off I woke too and remembered how much pain I am really in when I turned over 😣 thanks for your concerns everyone 💕 I'm doing ok at the moment. If I'm honest I'm dreading this scan..very worried about it. Means a lot you have all messages and asked 🙂 xxxx

OP posts:
Mich2020 · 28/01/2020 07:25

They also said after dipping a pregnancy test in that it was negative so I wasn't pregnant, they don't think this is ectopic, well never mentioned it anyway. It would have shown up on blood test. Ahh I don't wish this pain upon anyone. Let's hope they get me in for this CT scan sooner rather than later 🤞🏻 I have stronger codeine and have a prescription for Diclofenac xx

@Mich2020 sounds very painful! I hope they get to the bottom of it soon. Definitely take all the analgesics they prescribed you. X
