My sister phoned me on Tuesday in a state saying she was pregnant even though she was sterlized in Sept (clips on tubes). Gone through a rush of emotion in that time but had blood test and scan yesterday and was told very high chance of ectopic pregnancy. Was due to have 2nd blood test and scan tomorrow to see how the hormone levels were doing etc. but was told that if she got pain in either side in the meantime, to come straight back. I questioned her about pain in shoulder and she said they never mentioned this. I said she MUST make sure she's seen if she gets this as I know a bit from Mumsnet. Well thank god for that. She started with pain this morning but not too bad and carried on work etc. and then rang me in a lot more pain and I demanded she went to the hospital. The reason she didn't go earlier is because it wasn't too bad plus the hospital hadn't mentioned it. Anyway, she went in early evening and her dp calle me about an hour ago to say she went into theatre at 9.15pm to have both tubes removed.
I just wondered if anyone had any idea how long the operation SHOULD last and also, what the recovery is like after? I'm sat here waiting for a call once she's out but not heard anything yet (although aware dp may be waiting til she's out of recovery etc).
TIA
