Hello,
Ok so here's the before story.
I kept missing my pill over 2 weeks i forgot at least 6 days. not good. So i thought a detox for a while from it would be a good idea.
4 weeks later still no period, which is not like me at all usually i come off it and i have my period a few days later.
My boobs where tender and i had a little back pain so we took a pregnancy test on Wednesday which came back positive. We wanted to be sure but it was late and the shops where shut so i took thursday off did another 2 one was positive and another not clear at all.
I started to get little stomach cramps on thursday, went to work on friday and about 3ish the cramps started to hurt, like little sharpe stabs. It thought this would die down.
10.30 last night phoned nhs direct, belly and back hurting lots. The midwife said get to a&e so we got my aunt to drop us there around 11ish. We didnt even have our details taken for 30mins. Then we got seen by a nurse and sent to a holding area i gave a sample and we waited till about an hour to see a doctor, she said the sample came back negative and there was no way i was pregnant, even with 2 positive tests (she had no reason why they where positive though) She took lots of blood tests as she thought the pain was diabetes related kidneys or liver.
We waited hours for the next stage where we were moved to another 'holding area' and then she came back with the results, the blood test shown very lows levels of HGC so i was/am pregnant but only by a few weeks (sure we told her that) my BS was high it had rose from 8.8 to 15.6 since 11.30. Pulse, blood pressure and temperature very high. Not good.
So i got sent to the gynaecologist ward where they where very helpful. I had some corrective novorapid to bring the bloods down. And she did an examination which as my first was very scary, as the pain was mainly on one side she was worried it was growing in my tubes, but as only 2 weeks pregnant no scan would show anything. This all ended at 6.30, bloods 12 something so we decided id have my breakfast then, i was then out on the ward to 'get some sleep' husband went home. They woke us up at 8 but i couldnt sleep anyway. Labour ward close by, women screaming , i wanted my mum or husband to cuddle.
Turns out i have a water infection , which i now am on meds for, cramps dont hurt and are on all sides of belly so seems to be growing ok. Explains all of the problems which are now better.I can have a scan in a few weeks.
Got home about 4.30 and had an hours sleep. Have some folic acid too.Feeling much better. (hubby in bed trying to get some sleep, is in work at 8 tomorrow and is so tired)
You dont realise how much you want something till they say you might loose it or an ovary.xx
