Pregnancy Info HOME

Well I am posting a follow up to my earlier posting. I had an u/s done this week to rule out an ectopic. The Dr. pretty much told me beforehand that it was clear by my very low numbers that I was not pregnant but growing some tissue somewhere. We discussed a D&C but after the ultrasound she said no. My uterine lining was very thin- as it should be normally- so the D&C would put me at risk for tearning. Plus she could not see anything there. HOWEVER she did see a suspicious spot by the end of my right tube that she called a "tubal abortion". Apparently this is where something formed in the tube but is/was working it's way out. I have had normal periods the past 3 months. My levels go up then down a little after my period. So the prognosis is this- we are waiting until after my next period. If I still have some level of hcg in my system she is going to treat me with methotrexate to dissolve any/all tissue still present. This has been going on 3 months now and I am just ready to be back to normal. Good luck to everyone out there...
