It's finally over (ectopic)
After 2 years of trying for our first, we found out before Easter that it was ectopic. Two rounds of Methotrexate on the 25th and the 1st. On Wednesday I had pain that was different, my blood pressure dropped and I thought I'd pass out. We got to the hospital and the doctor met us there. The ultrasound techs finally found it in what they thought was my right abdomen, but when they opened me up, it was in the left tube that had pushed to the right and started to rupture. They took the tube.
So now it's over at least. No more waiting and hoping for my hcg to drop. We'll still have to wait 3 months for the Methotrexate to get out of my system before trying again.
It's been three weeks of extreme emotions and mourning. I haven't really been able to process the loss of the tube or what it means for our future chances. I've heard plenty of success stories, but given the fact that everything that could've gone wrong did, I'm less than optimistic.
