Hsg dropped and then went back up again after surgery to remove ectopic

I had an interstitial ectopic pregnancy removed 3 weeks ago, I had 3 bloods done which showed my levels went from 7000 to 4000, then a week later dropped to 1000 and now it has gone back up to 3000 again after a week. Is there a chance I have to have surgery again? I really don't want to go down that route. Has anyone had methotrexate to help? I have to go in tomorrow. I've only started healing and thought all of this was over Sad

Sounds like they may have left some tissue behind which is still releasing hcg. I had methotrexate for an ectopic and it didn't work - there is an upper limit they can give it - above 3500hcg the chance of it working decreases significantly and they won't give it above 5000hcg - they may decide to operate again to see if there is something else there
