Ectopic

Last year I was diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy. When I began bleeding, I was 5 weeks pregnant. I went to the ER where they performed a vaginal ultrasound. Within the endometrial canal a complex appearing 2 cm. hypoechoic region was noted, with no fetal pole, or fetal heart tone that they could see. Also, they noticed my left ovary measured 2.2 cm x 2.7 cm x 3.7 cm and a complex hypoechoic area that measured 2.4 cm x 1.3 cm in the same ovary. My right ovary unremarkable. I visited my OB/GYN 2 days later, and he also performed a vaginal ultrasound which showed NO gestational sac within my uterus. During those 2 days I had stopped all bleeding. My HCG levels were monitored, they continued to rise and so, I was diagnosed ectopic. My question is, what happened to my gestational sac in those 2 days, and could I have been pregnant with twins? My doctor has said nothing, no explanations whatsoever, just that I had a better chance of winning the lottery... If someone can answer these questions, I thank you. taylorjl@earthlink.net
