Got to go to hospital tonight I feel so stupid

I'm about 5 +3 according to scan (by my dates I should be 7 weeks) and I've got spotting, which was all fine when I had my scan tuesday, but I got in this evening and had a gush of bright red blood (sorry if TMI).

I phoned the doctors this evening and said see what happens, but when I mentioned the pain I had in my shoulder - I had pain at the front of my shoulder today, really intense like deep joint pain just where the shoulder and collar bone is at the front, the doc said he wanted me to come in a be checked. I always thought ectopic was shoulder blade, and this is at the front.

Anyways the reason I feel so stupid is because I feel like I'm making a big fuss. When I had my first scan they couldn't see the left ovary that clearly but said not to worry because the baby was on the right, (i have a bicornuate uterus) and when I had my second scan they didnt' mention anything about the left ovary. When I mentioned this to the doc he said he that he needs to check me over because of the fact they hadn't seen the left ovary clearly. I really don't think it's ectopic and I feel so silly going in.

What if its all nothing. I feel so stupid. I've been in hospital already a few months ago with pneumonia and I don't want to go in again for nothing.

No, you are not to feel stupid. You're bleeding and you have pain and that should always be checked out. Anyway, your doctor doesn't think it is stupid to err on the side of caution, does he?

It is just a scan and you will be home again in no time.

If it's nothing, that's good!

You do need to be checked though. It could be an ectopic with those symptoms. Probably isn't, but you need to be checked all the same.

So Go. Hope it's all fine
