interesting side effect from D&E

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Aside from the emotional part, my D&E was much easier than I anticipated. I've had literally no pain in Ladytown. For that I'm very grateful.

But, I've been hit with terrible soreness in my upper body. Yesterday I could barely move. Today is a little bit better after I started taking the big Ibuprofen pills that I was sent home with. I found an explanation on the internet-- postoperative myalgia. The article says it occurs more often in fit patients and in young women. I did not have this reaction after my previous two egg retrieval procedures, so this was a big surprise.

Anyone else have this pain?

    No, I didn't get that but my lower back hurt.  Weird. It's been two weeks and I still have a little brown muck (tmi).

    I think I had this. I felt like a train hit me the day after. I was so sore especially in my neck and shoulders. It went away in about 4 days. Hopefully you begin to feel better soon!
