  • Hi Tracey

    I am not a nurse and I know that this is in the ask a nurse section, but just in case they dont get to this until later tomorrow, I would contact your gp in the morning.  I had a similar procedure many years ago and developed a pelvic infection afterwards, if it is that it is easily sorted out with antibiotics, but it shouldnt be left otherwise its a lot harder to clear up.

    Regards

    thankyou for this I will contact my gp as I’m feeling not well like sickly to ….the pain won’t ease in my tummy and pelvis area ….

  • My infection started about 4 days after the procedure, started with general sore stomach, then became very swollen, pain in lower back, i tried ignoring it, ended up with temp and feeling sick.  I left it too long and ended up with 2 courses of antibiotics, before it cleared up.

    Hope that the doctor can sort it out quickly for you.
