Could it be ectopic

Hey Carmel,

I fell in the same way as you were feeling. Please let me know if you had an ectopic pregnancy. I'm so scared.

Hi Carmel,

I also had in ectopic about 3 years ago. I also had the same symptoms on and off again the past few months. (very frustrating and scary).

When I am in doubt, I do a home pregnancy test. If I am still worried I do a blood test. That is a pretty sure way to tell, becuase it will pick up even low levels of HCG.

Like you should know, scans and sonars does not pick on ectopics that often.

I have been to the ER a few times with the same pain and symptoms, and was sent home with IBS diagnosis.

However, never ignore the symptoms as ectopics have a tendency to occur again (about 35% chance) in someone who has had one already. Scary, I know. Rather go and see a doctor!

Take care of yourself and hope it is nothing serious!

If you had the same symptoms before and this is now the case again as in 2007, of course it could be ectopic.

I think you should go see your doctor to rule it out - maybe you are just pregnant and will have a healthy pregnancy

Good luck!

I had an ectopic pregnancy in 2007. Now I have similar symptoms. Been sleepy and nauseous for the past 4 weeks. Very sleepy - from 11hoo in the morning can't keep my eyes open.

Since Saturday, I have had excrutiating abdominal pain, nausea, backache, urge to use toilet but no result, feel bloated and constipated [sorry for the very graphic info]. Today I feel very dizzy. Can hardly sit for long and getting up from bed/chair is very painful.

Could it be ectopic?
