Ectopic Pregnancy : PART III (Diagnostic Laparoscopy)

          This post has been inside Draft for months. It's because I don't have guts to publish it. Not until now.. :-). [Recap from Part I & Part II].
       
          At 5.30pm, they took my blood to repeat the Beta HCG test. I really appreciate for my husband's patience & support. He never fail to visit me everyday at noon & evening. At the very last minutes, I still hope & prayed my baby would safe.
          Next morning, the doctor told me my pregnancy hormone increased from 4,86++ to 7,9++. He told me that they would perform laparoscopy examination to remove the pregnancy but before that, they would scan me again (for the 3rd times!) before they concluded the diagnosed. I was asked to change into operation gown. 
          This time I was freaking scared. I called my husband but sadly, he could not come because it wasn't visiting time yet. I asked my husband to let my parents know.
          After scanned, the doctors found the embryo was implanted at my left tube. He showed me the screen... the embryo was very small, he measured it only 2.1cm. So the diagnosis; left tubal pregnancy. They would perform diagnostic laparoscopic to remove the tube together with the pregnancy. And they would do it today! 
          The doctors advised that I could undergo the operation today because I had not eaten anything since last night. Nurse injected & dripped water. Note: It was pain when nurse injected the drip because my bloodstream was too small. Until she need to change to a smaller drip. *Jarum lagi besar daripada salur darah. LOL*.
          At visiting time 12.30pm, my husband came.
dah tukar baju operation
          At 4pm, I brought to OT. I was given general anaesthetic (GA) to make me unconscious during the procedure. And that's all... the baby had been removed together with my left tube.

          Now I'm surviving with only 1 tube (the right one). Doctors advised that I could try to conceive again after 6 months. And he also told me to go to the hospital once suspecting I'm pregnant again.


Ok, stop the sad story.. Now I'm 10 weeks pregnant after 5 months operation! Oh, how then?? As doctors advised to wait for 6 months... :-). I shall continue my story in the next entry.
