ectopic pg symptoms?

[wannababy1]

i'm so sorry to bother all of you. i don't want to offend anyone by posting in here but i'm getting worried and don't know where else to go for answers. what are the symptoms of ec pg? i'm finding symptoms like shoulder pain and neck pain but they don't go in depth about what that pain is supposed to feel like and exactly in the neck or shoulder is it supposed to be. again i'm very sorry but concerned for my health. i don't have insurance or i would just go to the dr.

hi wanna,

how pg do you think you are? an ectopic pg can be asymptomatic for quite a while until it begins to grow, at which time you would have terrible lower abdominal pain near the ovaries. and as you are probably aware, an ectopic pg is not viable and requires a procedure to remove.

the only way to determine early on is with bloodwork. i just recently went through this process, and the RE told me that if beta numbers do not rise normally (in the cae of healthy pregnancy) or fall normally (as in the case of miscarriage) but hover in a general area, then it is probably an ectopic.

i really don't know what to tell you. did you get a BFP? how long ago? neck and shoulder pain are usually referred pain from some other source. good luck and keep us posted.

SO CONFUSED!
Current mood: anxious

MOST ALL OF U KNOW I HAVE TAKEN 8 PG TESTS. I GOT 1 "PREGNANT" WITH A DIGITAL AND THE REST WERE NEG.. I'M EXTREMELY CONFUSED B/C I WASN'T EVEN BOTHERING WITH TTC THIS MONTH AND A DAY B4 MY PD I STARTED THINKING ABOUT HOW I HAD BEEN FEELING SO THOUGHT I SHOULD TEST. THE 1ST 3 WERE NEG, THEN GOT THE PREGNANT, THEN I GOT 4 MORE NEG. SO SEEING AS HOW I WASN'T REALLY THINKING ABOUT TTC THIS MONTH I HONESTLY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT I CAUSED ANY SYMPTOMS AS I HAVE IN THE PAST. HERE ARE MY SYMPTOMS.....

AS OF TODAY I'M 7 DAYS LATE FOR MY PD.
NIPPLES MORE SENSITIVE
BIGGER APPETITE
SEEM TO HAVE A CRAVING FOR ASIAN PALACE
CRAVING SALTY THINGS
HEADACHE NON-STOP FOR THE PAST WEEK AND A HALF
MAJOR GASSY
TMI-----NORMALLY CONST. BUT NOW HAVING DIAR.
TIGHTER DOWN SOUTH
FEELIN A LIL MORE FRISKY
MORE TIRED THAN USUAL
SMELL THINGS ALOT EASIER.... THE STINKY THINGS
SKIN BREAKOUT WORSE
BLOATED FEELING
GAG REFLEX MORE NOTICABLE
MORE BODY ACHES THAN NORMAL
SLIGHT NAUSEA ALL DAY.. SO LIGHT THOUGH THAT I WONDER IF IT'S NAUSEA AT ALL
HAD A COUPLE OF DIZZY SPELLS
more frequent urination

now the really confusing part is that on cd30 i got a + opk test. sooo maybe i actaully ov on that day??? so if i am i'm either a lil over 5 weeks or a lil over 3 weeks...
i copied the above part from my blog on myspace. thanks ladies!

Wanna--CALL YOUR DOCTOR and see if they'll work with you on payment for a pregnancy blood test!!!!!! You really need to get this checked out...especially since you got a BFP on a digital.

[trying hard]

I agree...the only way you will know for sure is to get b/w done. You really should call your doc so you can stop driving yourself crazy! And by the time you keep using the hpt you will have been able to pay for the b/w...GOOD LUCK!
