Hi Hun,

Im sorry I cant answer your questions as I dont know anything about cornual eptopic.

I just wanted to say hang in there til weds, take each day as it comes and try not to speculate too much (although i know its really hard!). Fingers crossed for you hun, try to relax as much as poss.

Dont surf the internet as you find alsorts of scary stories (I know I did) and it makes the worrying loads worse. Stay on here with us, we'll look after u!

Lots of hugs hun xxxxxxx

First of all let me just say how very sorry I am to hear this, huge gentle hugs I know how you must be feeling.
I was treated with MTX for my ectopic 5 years ago and found it perfectly fine, no problems at all and its much better than surgery as it preserves the tubes (I recieved it via an injection). I'm also on MTX now for my arthritis and take it weekly, other than feeling a bit rough afterwards for about 24-48 hours I am perfectly fine.
They have to tell you about all the possible side effects but I can assure you the chances of having any kind of reaction is minimal. Trust me I wouldnt take this drug on a weekly basis if it was likely to cause me serious harm as I have two kids to consider.
Please feel free to message me if you'd like to discuss it further.
