Methotrexate ?
I had a second ectopic pregnancy about 2 weeks ago and was given Methotrexate.(I still have the tube) I have been looking online for symptoms but have not found anything that helps me. My problem is...I was given methotrexate via an iv on July 30th. It is now exactly two weeks since and I am bleeding very heavily at times and have severe cramps, so painful that I cannot move. The only symptoms I seem to find online are for the initial 2-3 days after. I am getting very scared and do not know what to do. I have an appointment with my dr on Monday. I also asked the dr if my symptoms are normal, the dr. says yes it is, but the pain is so unbearable I kind of don't feel the doctor understands the pain and the amount of blood. Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

Re: Methotrexate ?
If you are this concerned I would consider going to the ER or calling the Emergency Line for your doctor... and see what he/she says... especially if the bleeding is that heavy and the pain so bad that you can't move... I wouldn't take something like this lightly... JMO

I agree with this post.
In fact, when I had my ectopic pregnancy, I had pain on the side, but the nurse told me my HCG was slowly going down and that the problem was resolving itself (going away on its own). I basically argued with her that I felt that something was wrong and insisted on having a sonogram (and annoyed the heck out of everyone at the doctor's office). As it turned out, I had a ruptured tube and had my tube removed that evening. What if I hadn't followed my gut instinct?
