Hello, Emily,

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. My browser crashed, and I got some sleep.

Nobody knows when the bleeding will start. How far along were you? Bleeding can also persist for weeks, and can deplete your body or even kill you. You could also experience a hemorrhage, so be prepared. These drugs stop the hormone that controls a woman's bleeding, so they are very dangerous. You need to watch closely, because you could easily have some serious complications. They should NEVER have given you Cytotec. That's malpractice. Find another doctor who knows abortion is bad medicine. You cannot trust the medical judgment of the people at that clinic. There is a very good chance the clinic could never pass a basic health inspection anyway. I am unaware of ANY clinic that offers abortions that can. They're very careless and the facilities are usually dirty.

Let me know how far along you were or are, and I'll talk about your situation some more. In the meantime, get some cayenne into your body. You can get it as a supplement, or eat food with red hot peppers in it, and do this on a regular basis. If you took the Cytotec vaginally, go to a doctor immediately and ask him to test you for Clostridium sordellii. If you have it, they should start immediate and aggressive treatment, because it can cause Toxic Shock Syndrome, and that can kill within hours. I do not know of a single woman who actually developed symptoms, who actually survived, even with the most aggressive treatment to save her life.

If the abortion is successful, you will also be at greater risk for breast cancer. This is especially true if this is your first pregnancy. Let me know, and I will tell you more about it, and what you can do to reduce your chances of getting it.

Please take care, and don't take these kinds of chances with your life in the future.
