Oh, Joanna - I am so so sorry for your loss. I, too, had my left tube removed after our first ectopic. I did a round of injectibles and an IUI and didn't quite make it to six weeks when the tube burst and I was in surgery... very scary experience. We did another two IUIs, the last ending in a second ectopic... but we caught it in time to save my remaining tube. The RE now suspects fallopian disfunction (lack of cilia or lack of cilia movement)... and we were sent over to an IVF clinic. We've had great success with IVF so far... even after our unfortunate experiences with ectopics. So don't lose hope!
My advice to you, if it is possible, go with IVF. Your chances of an ectopic are much less (though not completely gone, unfortunately) and they will get the healthiest, strongest embryos and put them in the right spot, in the happiest, healthiest environment... so don't give up. Never, never give up. Fear is perfectly normal after all you've been through. Hesitation is, too... but don't let this knock you down for good. Rest, regroup, and retry! Great big jugs, Joanna! We're here for you!
