Hi all I had a lap just over 2 weeks ago it's not been pleasant still uncomfortable. My tummy still feels bruised is this normal?? Also they never found the ectopic pregnancy so when I go Friday if my hormones are still high I may have to have surgery again!! Has anyone else gone through this???

Dear Shelly my heart goes out for u. Yes I had an ectopic last year after an ivf. It's was excruciating. And I was quite sore for about 6 weeks. I'm sure everyone is different. But yes it's really difficult. But u do need to be monitored closely. And sometimes ectopic can be anywhere in d tummy. But I hope and pray that's not s case with you. But I'm sure if U r monitored closely u will be given options of whatever is d beat course of action for u. Any questions do feel free to give a shout.

Xx

I'm just very confused this has been going on now since 10/12/16 where I was told I'd miscarried but tests were still positive?? Never expected ectopic but now they can't find it!! It's not in monitor! And the surgery didn't show it, I still feel pregnant and I'm constantly exhausted since the op and in look out for signs and symptoms of a rupture!! Friday can't come quick enough!😬

Yes I know dear. I hope u r not working in this state. You just need to put ur feet up. It's not easy at all. I know hun. But ur hospital needs to track u really closely. If u r worried call ur hospital and explain ur concerns and how u feel. They should know everything.
