so I feel like a complete crazy person writing this but need to get it off my chest.

i had an ectopic pregnancy earlier this year, my period was late. I found out at about 2-3 weeks pregnant. I was nauseous, dizzy, sore head, tender and swollen breasts, I had an uncomfortable shoulder also.

fast forward to now, I am nauseous, dizzy, frequent sore heads Swollen boobs all the same symptoms and a really uncomfortable shoulder (same as last time) and a million negative pregnancy tests. Last time around, it took so long for my tests to show up positive it was actually frightening it took that long but it was obviously because my hcg wasn’t rising as it should as i stated it was ectopic so it wasn’t doubling every 48hrs.

I had some light brown discharge on Friday and then a brown light bleed which turned pink and back to brown. It lasted 5 days. It was so light it didn’t warrant a pad or a tampon and was about a tea spoon amount. I can’t shift this feeling I’m pregnant as the “bleed” was later than my expected period and is absolutely nothing like the periods I get which are usually painful and heavy bright red flow.

I feel like history is repeating itself, my gut is telling me it is but the dr won’t see me which is fair enough I suppose as I haven’t any proof other than my body telling me. Has anyone had anything similar? I’m quite frightened

On ebay grounds won't your GP see you? Sounds highly negligent unless there's something they know which you haven't mentioned here.

Ebay?? Sorry, that was meant to say on what grounds...?

@Squiff70

Waiting on GP calling back again tomorrow but was basically told they wouldn’t see me unless I could produce a positive test for which I’d be referred to my local EPU for a scan at 6 weeks which is standard procedure after an ectopic.

Frustrating though, as I feel like a total crazy person. My body is just off and I feel like it’s all the same as last time. Just need to see what they say tomorrow I guess and also keep testing.

The thing is as well they totally dismissed me last time around and so did EPU and they brushed off my uncomfortable shoulder also and I persisted and eventually was seen, ectopic pregnancy located in right tube and methotrexate given.
