So.
I had my D&C on Friday, and all went well considering the anesthesia and pain meds made me unaware of most of it! Thankfully M's family helped us a lot with meals, etc. They were real life savers.
I got the call Friday afternoon that pathology had not found any pregnancy tissue in my uterus.
I went in Saturday morning for my methotrexate injections. They were not bad - barely hurt at all - and I haven't (so far) had any adverse side effects or reactions. I will continue to be monitored this week to make sure that the hCG levels decrease. Oh goody. More needles. My arms are already so bruised from being poked every 48 hours!
The worst part of the hCG is that I can't have any alcohol or leafy greens (because they contain folic acid). FOR TWO WEEKS. We went to IN-N-OUT last night for dinner and I had to ask for no lettuce on my hamburger!! WTF?! And seriously, I can give up wine if I'm pregnant, but not if I'm NOT pregnant! This is the time I need it the most!
oof. I feel the same way about the wine! LOL
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling well despite the treatment. Sorry this cycle has been such a hard road.
I am so sorry about your ectopic. You sound like you are doing well considering...Ugh.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm really sorry about the wine. That definitely helps get me through the tough times.
Hoping time flies until your next cycle.
Hugs.
I am glad that all of this will be over soon and you can start trying again. It is cruel that you can't have wine!!! I feel for ya!!
