bleeding/spotting at 5 1/2 weeks

Re: bleeding/spotting at 5 1/2 weeks

  • Thank you @flanners1 and @lesteach. Yes, it's been causing a lot of anxiety and emotions. I'm just really not happy with how they've handled this cycle. The RE is joining a new facility so they're closing at the end of the month. I can't help but feel like they don't really care anymore. I have thought about going to the ER or urgent care but I thought that might be very expensive.

    When you say growth you don't mean like cancer? If it is I'm glad they found it and everything happens for a reason. I'm sorry you had to go through all of that. My hearts breaks for you.

  • @LSatturo126, they don't know what it is yet but cancer is a possibility. They sent it off for a biopsy. Yes, it never would have been found without the ectopic. It was a terrible way to find it but like you said, everything happens for a reason.
