I had an ERPC 6 days ago. I was told by the Doctor that surgery was successful and I had vacuum aspiration and they have scraped the lining of the uterus.
The recovery was ok first 2 days. On 3rd day I had labour like pains for about 1 hour . It was really scary but it passed.
Then yesterday I didn't not bleed and me and my husband got close , it was very gentle. I felt good so we went for a 4 km walk.
Since after the walk I have pain in uterus/pelvis whenever I sneeze ,cough ,seat down or move suddenly. I had a temp of 38 yesterday but it's ok now.
I rang EPU who said to ring GP as I can't self reffer to them (not sure then why it says on discharge note to contact them if I have any symptoms of infection ) . GP can't see me today so asked to ring EPU again. The nurse said its nothing to do with my operation as it was just a very simple surgery and asked me to do covid test .
I am not sure if what I am experiencing is normal. What could it be ?
It feels a bit like when I had c section (but inside)and I couldn't sneeze etc due to pain in wound.
