Recently had PID....Terrified it'll come back!!

[Lookalikexo]

I had a coil fitted over a month ago. A couple of weeks later I began having really bad pains in my abdomen. Became ill so went to the doctors, who in turn sent me to hospital as an emergency. I had sepsis, caused by the coil which had produced BV. Not sexually active, had the coil to help with my fibroid periods. This also caused pelvic inflammation.

I was so ill from all of this that I am now absolutely TERRIFIED to get it again. I genuinely feel quite traumatised and honestly feel like I'll forever live in constant fear of it redeveloping and becoming so bad. Feel like I'll never want sex, never want a bath just a shower, never want anything that can induce anything like it ever again.

Has anyone else had it? How do you minimise the risk of it returning? Coil was obviously removed and will not be having another.

Just finished antibiotics for it after surgery to drain an abscess. All my swabs were fine so they don't know what caused it.

Worried about infection coming back as go down hill quickly. Not sure how to minimise risk but understand how you feel.

@angelopal I finished my antibiotics yesterday. Apparently it's normal to still have pain afterwards, which I do still have faintly. Such a horrible experience, I appreciate that you understand how I'm feeling. Hope you're feeling ok.
