I was 9 weeks pregnant and miscarried and opted to have it surgically removed as I didn't want to wait to pass it. This was on the 24th Feb.

Two weeks later I collapsed due to very heavy bleeding and was admitted to A&E and then to emergency gynaecology. They didn't really say much except to wait it out.

It slowed right down, I stopped bleeding and then last Thursday I woke up drenched in blood, bleeding right through a pad every half hour, again I was admitted to A&E, then to gynaecology and was prescribed mefenamic (maybe spelt wrong?) acid. This stemmed the bleeding. I'm still taking acid regularly but again I've started losing so much blood and quite quickly. It starts so fast too! I'm sat on the floor crying, healthcare providers keep fobbing me off, I've had so much time off work.

Has anyone else had this? It's a never ending nightmare Sad

Honesty that is terrible please just ring 111 they will assess the situation and refer you. As if you don't have enough to deal with x

Update! I rang 111, they phoned a NEMS service near me, doctor saw me and sent me straight to EPU again! I have a large amount of pregnancy tissue left that is very vascular, which means a lot of blood supply to it. This explains the crazy amount of bleeding and pain.

I'm awaiting treatment options now. I'm so relieved. Halo thank you for all your well wishes.

Still thinking how could they have fobbed me off so many times!

I'm so glad you're finally going to get this sorted. ❤

You poor thing. This sounds so very familiar. I ended up having cervical sutures put in to stop the bleeding as mine was 'impressively vascular'. I really hope the Dr's are on the case now and going to get you sorted. Keep strong Flowers
