well, i had my operation at 9am yesterday morning. i was going in for a laparoscopy to remove suspected ectopic pregnancy.
when i came round in recovery i can vaguely remember the doctor over my bed telling me that they couldnt find it in my tubes so had gone ahead and done a D+C as well only that didnt reveal much either. "minimal evidence of products of conception" or something and basically said they hadnt found evidence of the prgnancy that was causing the levels to rise and that i would be coming back in for further blood tests to check nothing was still growing.
i was out of it most of the day yesterday and had a couple of wobbly moments when my pulse was really high and wasnt allowed out of bed as i was really light headed. my wound also came open and bled quite a bit.
Anyway, today all day I lay there waiting for a doctor to see what was happening and if i could go home. about 4pm the nurse came up and asked if i felt up to going home. i said well yes but im still waiting for someone to talk to me about what happened.
she said well you have an appointment next week, i said well nobody told me - she just shrugged it off and looked at my notes and reiterated about the laparoscopy etc and said hopefully whatever it was they took away in the d and c was the pregnancy even though it wasnt recognisable.
she said if the levels had still gone up it could be that the ectopic was too small to see or that it was growing elsewhere but that this was very very unlikely.
so....hopefully, wahtever it was has gone.
now im left feeling really bruised, shellshocked and badly treated throughout what has been a horrific experience.
they just dont seem to grasp that amongst all the medical crap i have lost a much wanted pregnancy.
