Re: Anyone heard of using Cytotec/Misoprostol (m/c ment)

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I have never heard of Cytotec for use before a septum resection, but

I was given it after one of my m/c's instead of having a D & C. I

inserted 2 vaginally and took a tylenol and codeine, and about 2

hours later I had SEVERE cramping and diarrhea and vomitting.

Couldn't keep down any more pain medication, and I was in alot of

pain for about 4 hours while I expelled everything from my uterus.

It was a difficult experience for me, I opted for a D & C for my next

m/c. I don't want to scare you, but be prepared for some serious

cramps. Everyone reacts differently, so it might not be bad for

you.

Good luck with your surgery.

Thanks Ronna,

I took the 2 pills vaginally last night before I went to bed and I seem to be Ok

this morning. Slight cramps that aren't too bad, but I'm so gassy!!!!

Thanks for the wishes!

Hi ,

I'm glad the cytotec wasn't bad for you. Maybe I had a bad reaction

because I was pg (missed m/c) at the time?

Good luck with everything!
