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

They've called and I have a ct scan booked for Thursday afternoon.. seems a million years away with all the pain I'm in though ☹️ xx

I imagine it does. If the pain becomes too much go back to a&e and they will be forced to treat the pain further and/or expedite the investigations.

Mich2020 · 28/01/2020 14:53

Thank you @calimommy I will do. My bleeding seems to have nearly stopped now. This doesn't seem like my normal period? Any idea why this would be?xx

I had ridiculously heavy bleeding a few days late the first month of ttc. I had a miscarriage the following cycle and it was nearly identical. In hindsight I think that first month it was a very early miscarriage too. Maybe that's what has happened with you?

Mich2020 · 28/01/2020 18:34

I was never pregnant @mummymummymummummum I had bloods taken at the hospital yesterday and they would have made it clear if that was the case.. but hope your ok and sorry for your losses x

@Kendrick12 how are you doing? Have you had your bfp or af yet? Xx

@Mich2020 I've just caught up!! How are you doing tonight? I can't believe they're leaving you until Thursday in that much pain. If you were taking up a bed they would have scanned you by now! Makes me cross that you go home to free up a bed for someone else and are made to wait longer for care!! No update from me, no BFP or AF!! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ I have no idea what's going on. I'm just getting myself more and more worked up thinking there is something wrong me. I have spent the evening googling symptoms as I've got a really swollen tummy (probably due to the fact I am day 49 into a cycle and never been so late before) and convinced myself I have a tumour or ovarian cancer!! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ xxx

Mich2020 · 28/01/2020 21:54

Heyyy glad to hear your ok as can be sorry about no bfp or af yet though ☹️ wonder if it's worth an appointment with your gp? Could be something underlying that your not aware of. Haha to the googling things, exact same all of today I've convinced myself I'm internally bleeding and I'm going to have a heart attack and die 🤦🏼‍♀️ it's so dangerous googling symptoms!!
I'm not great if I'm honest, only way to help with pain is to lay down very still. Hard work because I'm really rubbish at staying still.. my stomach is so swollen too looks like I'm about 6 months pregnant. My bleeding has settled down to hardly anything and it's a very strange colour like off red and strange but then I do usually wear a tampon and not a pad so maybe it's always that colour and I don't inspect my tampons 🤣 ive been taking a higher dose of codeine and Diclofenac that they prescribed me last night. Nothing is touching the pain whatsoever. My mum has advised that if still the same tomorrow to be going up in hope they can give me some different pain relief and maybe get me scanned. Surely two whole days in this terrible pain isn't right xxx

@Kendrick12 no idea what age you are but my friend has recently started having unusual cycles, sometimes she skips periods completely and feels really bloated, then gets a period when the next one would have been due. She is 36.

Kendrick12 · 29/01/2020 00:21

@calimommy I've just turned 30. My periods are not always bang on they can vary from 30-38 days being the longest. So this is just ridiculously long for me. I'm more than likely just getting myself in a state over absolutely nothing. Which is more than likely delaying my period. Trying not to think about it but it's all I can think about then every little niggle I over analyse. 😩😩 I suffer with health anxiety too so I'm well aware that I do this to myself! I've got blood tests tomorrow and awaiting an ultrasound too so if there is anything it will be picked up and if there's not then hopefully it'll put my mind at rest. Hope everyone is doing ok? Xxx

Kendrick12 · 29/01/2020 00:24

@mich2020 please go back tomorrow, if no better as if you are taking a bed up they will scan you much sooner! And find out what's going on. You shouldn't be in that much pain lovely. Keep us posted on how your getting on xx

Mich2020 · 29/01/2020 07:43

@Kendrick12 please keep me updated of how everything goes for you today. Hope you get some answers. I'm currently dosed up to the eyeballs again. It's good when I take all the tablets at the same time because it actually does something for a short while. No good for my poor stomach though. Will see how I go today and keep you posted xx

@Mich2020 I'm so glad you're back in touch but so sorry your going through what you're going through and also have no answers Sad Hope some serious rest and recovery sorts you out. Take it easy! Xxx

Kendrick12 · 29/01/2020 23:46

@Mich2020 how have you been today?? I had bloods done today so just to wait for results now. Then wait for letter for ultrasound. I'm getting sharp pains in my left side tonight. Will be thinking of you tomorrow. What time is your appointment? Xxxx

Mich2020 · 30/01/2020 07:48

Let me know how your bloods were 😊 my appointment is 3.10 today. The pain isn't half as bad as it was Monday/Tuesday but still there I've been dosing up on tablets every 4 hours and trying to get as much sleep as possible. Hope everyone is okay. Thank you all for checking up. I will update this afternoon xx

Kendrick12 · 30/01/2020 21:17

@Mich2020 how did your appointment go?? I get blood results Monday. But I eventually got my period today!!! Yay!!! On CD 56 so who knows where I'm gonna be at this month! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ xxx

Mich2020 · 31/01/2020 09:50

@Kendrick12 ahh at least you can relax now. Onto the next cycle 😊
Ahhh well very stressful. Got to the hospital for what I thought was going to be ct scan, the dr had no idea about it. Examined me asked about my symptoms and said we need to get you in for a scan.. I was like I thought that was what I was here for? But he put in an urgent request, said I'd get a call last night or this morning. Still nothing. Pain has eased a bit now. Feels like strong period pains he thinks that i could have/was a kidney stone and it could have passed already. Such a nightmare. I'm exhausted 😩 not slept great last few nights. Tablets make me sick too ☹️ not back at work until Tuesday as long as scan goes ok so hoping to get some rest. Children are going with their dad today so lots of time to chill xx

Mich2020 · 21/04/2020 07:29

@Kendrick12 nothing at all to report. New cycle started today. Still trying. With all this going on in the world my operation isn't going to be any time soon either so will keep going every month in some hope xx

HowFurloughCanYouGo · 21/04/2020 08:15

OP, every single test you have posted from the start of this thread has been negative.

You must have spent an absolute fortune!

I think you need to step away from the tests for a week. Probably easier said than done in lockdown at the moment though!

Mich2020 · 21/04/2020 08:48

Thanks for your reply, I did have a positive frer and clearblue during this and this was a few months ago now. Think they could have been on a different thread. I have endometriosis so I am struggling to conceive but I think during all of my ttc I ha be had a couple chemical pregnancies.
Again af shown her face today so onto another month again x
