Jennifer,
Thank-you for being concerned about me. I feel much
better and I am taking something for the pain at home.
It sounds to me you may have a tubal pregnancy. You
need to get a vaginal sonogram. It will definitely
show if you have a tubal or not. I know from experience.
I had a tubal pregnancy yrs back. My husband at the
time took me to the emergency room where they determined
through tests that I was pregnant. Then there was a
wonderful and compassionate female doctor who decided
to do a vaginal sonogram and found that I definitely
have a tubal pregnancy.She called in 2 surgeons that
night and they tried to convince me to have surgery.
I said no, even though the surgeons told me that if I go
home and the tube ruptures, there is a very good chance,
I will bleed to death in 20 min. They had asked how
far away do I live from this particular hospital, I
said 30 min away. It was 3am in the morning and I was
tired of being poke and proded. I just wanted to go
home.The doctor gave my husband her private phone
number at home just in case. Well when we got home,
my husband decided not to change his clothes. He
knew in his heart that he was going to have to take
me back. Well he was right. At 9am, I was rushed to
the emergency room where there were 5 doctors and
surgeons waiting for me. I was rushed into surgery
after some tests were done right away. They had to do
an antemosis through the vagina and not the belly
button, because of the previous surgeries I have had
through there. It was extremely painful and I wanted
to die. I was very greatful that they saved my life. I
almost died.
So please, get help as soon as possible. You just don't
know what may happen. Please!!!! Let me know how
things are going.
Dee
