Shoulder pain before OTD - could it be ectopic?

[Citizenerased83]

Hi all,

I'm freaking out in my 2ww.

I've been getting some pain in my left shoulder since yesterday. It's on and off. My OTD is Sunday and I haven't tested but I'm getting worried that perhaps I'm pregnant but it's ectopic. Any advice please?

Thanks xx

Hi Citizeneraser. Let’s not jump to conclusions. They’re always a tiny possibility, but let’s just hope you’ve slept awkwardly. Thinking of you and good luck for tomorrow. Diane

hi lovely, sorry to hear about the pain. I’d focus on distracting myself as best as you can to pass the time before the test results.

You are doing the best you can.

Thanks lovely. Just keeping busy working. How are you? Xx

Lots of nausea, insomnia and hot flashes haha it will pass 🥹 so I’m also trying to distract myself xx

Oh bless you. Take it easy. My doctor said having something sweet before injections can help with nausea. Xx

I was looking for your posts to see how you got on! Good luck for test day today 🤞🏼xx

Thanks lovely. Sadly a big fat negative. Doesn't feel like it's going to happen for us. How are you? Xx

I’m sorry 🙁 I’m sure it will happen I know it’s tough but don’t give up on your dream xx

I’ve had early positives from testing trigger and it’s gotten darker over the last 2 days but I’m cautious as I’ve got hypothyroidism and my antibodies were high 3 months ago so I’m petrified of a chemical x

[Citizenerased83 in reply to Oopsieloopsy]

Thanks lovely.Good luck, I hope this is the one for you. I know how you feel, I have hypothyroidism, pcos and high thyroid antibodies. Did you take steroids this time? I'm not sure if I should try then next. Keep me posted on how you get on. Xx

[Oopsieloopsy in reply to Citizenerased83]

No I didn’t because I’ve never had a miscarriage or implantation before so they wouldn’t give them but I did ask. Definitely ask for them next time xx

Thank you. They come with awful side effects and the science isn't very robust on them so I'm not sure about them. Xx
