?? My numbers went up to 67 from 38, my nurse considered it doubling since it was a 48 hour beta draw. ?She said my estrogen and progesterone were a touch low but she wasn't too concerned (I didn't get the numbers)
?? ?What they ARE concerned about is ectopic. ?Since my numbers started so low and my beta was late (13dp3dt) they want me to be aware of any one sided pain and contact them immediately. Going back in Friday for beta #3
?? ? So, for now I'm still in the game but I have a long way to go before I can relax. I'm still a bundle of nerves, but I feel a little better that I at least still have a shot. ?
?? Many thanks for all the support, this has been a tough week.?

I let out an audible gasp when I saw your post.
Yay for doubling beta Monty!!! I wish everything was more clear cut and you didn't have all these maybe scenerios. I am hoping and praying for an amazing beta on Friday.
Have you had any side pain at all?

hey there, yea for doubling and I KNOW how tough this is for you. .I have had two past ectopics..as you see in my siggy, both times..
I took methodextrate shot, but my numbers were not going down
I was very rare, usually the numbers never go up, they usually go down or stay at a stand still or don't double.. but anywya, the shot did not work and i had to have my tube removed both times, so i am tubeless.. now..
so you are in my prayers....
?
I'm so sorry that you had to go through that twice and loose both tubes. ?That just sucks. ?
I appreciate you sharing your story and the information since I know so little about what to look for regarding ectopic. ??
Yay, so glad to hear that it's rising. Hopefully it was just a late implanter and it will grow to be a big, strong baby. Congrats!!!
