IUD Update....

Well this is a follow up from my last post...Well, on Thursday night after having a few people over for a barbeque I started feeling some chest pain. I felt short of breath but I also hadn't eaten steak in a while so I figured that maybe I just had heartburn. Well, I awoke like 5 or 6 times that night but I din't have any tums so I just wrote it off. Then my sister and I went for a walk in the morning and I felt like I had pressure when taking deep breaths so when I got home and realized that I had a rash starting all over my body I decided to call my dr. She was in surgery. I told the nurse the story and she said she would talk to my dr. and call me back(a call was returned telling me that these symptoms were not related to the IUD but if they got worse to go to the ER). I decided to call the ER(where I work) and luckily it my was favorite dr. who was on. She said to come over before my scheduled ultrasound and we would do an x-ray to make sure it hadn't perforated. So we all looked at the x-ray and had determined that it must've just fallen out cause we couldn't see it anywhere then the dr gasped and swore..then pointed. It was almost up to my ribs..Somehow, I have been given no explanation how or why but it traveled through my uterine wall and was in my abdomen...luckily my diaphragm was protecting my lungs but my bowels and other organs were still at risk so about an hour later I went to surgery. They were able to do a laparoscopy and I have 2 small holes in my abdomen and I am just so glad that dang thing is out of me! My dr told chad after the surgery that the strings were starting to wrap around my liver. So now I just have to make sure I don't have to pay for any of this. Supposedly my uterus will just heal itself and according to my trustworthy dr I will have no lasting effects! But I am doing good, just sore and tired! I am just taking a break from laying down to update you all and tell you thanks for the support!
