Hi everyone, well I had my operation Thursday under spinal anaesthesia for retained products after a miscarriage 4 weeks ago.
I still feel exactly the same today as I did before the op.
Same pain, same pressure, no change what so ever in how everything felt down there when I had the retained products left in to how I feel today after the op. Supposed to be a straightforward op and be back to normal swiftly after.
Well, im no different. My boobs are burning still as well.
Sorry tmi, hardly and bleeding either.
No scan was done after to make sure all was removed, im thinking they have missed whatever was left attached and causing my pos preg tests and preg symptoms.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks :)
I think you have done very well to get the health care that you wanted.
I also think: sqad gynaecologist extraordinaire that he is.... may not be as useful to you as your GP and gynaecologist that treated you, as they have all the gory details.
for example the repeat scan - there is no point in doing one if your doctors are gonna wait anyway....
IN the end you are gonna have to go back to the GP
Only had surgery Thursday morning. I had miscarriage 4 wks today and preg test stayed positive constant, u/s showed 3cm retained products with blood flow so said it was placental tissue.
My pain is all like inside my rectum, exactly the same as it was last week, shooting and severe, if I need to pass gas, or bowel movement, its horrendous, just as it was before the op.
But sat here now and comes and goes for few seconds, severe shooting up back passage, srry again tmi.
My daughter had the same thing - unfortunately it turned out to be twins and the other early foetus had died but not been expelled, which meant intervention - it took a few weeks so be patient.
I think you should expect a few days of pain. Your cervix has been forced open and that can cause some discomfort. You may have pos pregnancy tests for up to 10 days later, I did.
