You know, no one in the OB's office mentioned anything and the people in the maternity ward told me it hurt right there just because "everything hurts right now, expect it." (Basically I was left alone after the birth.)
Four months after the little guy, I finally ended up with it so bad my husband took me to ER. They treated me and sent me home, nothing else. I made a doctor's appointment of my own accord (ER didn't recommend) and then the ultrasound showed it. I'm scheduled for surgery whenever they get back to me with the referral -- the "urgent" nature of it apparently doesn't merit answering their voicemail for a few weeks...
What else are we at risk for? I wasn't told about this one and I'm sure there are others... Why wasn't I told??
