ANSWER: Hello, shimba,
This sounds potentially very serious! Yes, that sounds like a suction abortion. It sounds like you may have a serious, perhaps life-threatening infection. This is actually quite common, which is one reason I try to get women not to take this kind of chance with their life. You need medical attention. Even though abortion is illegal, you need to have a doctor examine you and provide treatment.
So here is what you need to do. You need to find a church where someone will be willing to recommend a doctor you can see as soon as possible. You need to do this NOW! In the meantime, get some Vitamin D3 and take it every few hours until the symptoms improve. You need to take 10,000 to 50,000IU for a few days. I don't know where you can get some, but it's the best remedy I know that can help with any type of infection. In the meantime, keep taking the quintor-500.
I will pray earnestly for you. Please, if you have a chance, warn other people. Abortion is very dangerous. It's illegal because they want to protect women. Women need to avoid abortion and find a different answer. Please take care, and let me know if you are able to find treatment. I will be gone for a few hours, but I'll be back then, and can talk to you further.

QUESTION: good morning, thanks for the reply. i called the doctor who did the abortion and he says i should use betadine douche(sp)....shud i still take the vitamin D. what is the name of it..wat do i say when i get to the pharmacy?
AnswerHello, shimba,
You're welcome.
I am relieved to hear from you. But you still are in very grave danger.
Betadine could cause a really nasty reaction, especially used on delicate internal tissue like this. I wouldn't recommend it. Betadine contains iodine, which is a disinfectant. I'll think about another way you might get iodine into your body. One thing you might try is to douche with a tea made from kelp. Kelp is high in iodine. But I know from personal experience it is not wise to use it in that way. Also, it doesn't make any sense to douche with it, because all that does is gets it into your vagina. From the sound of things, the abortion he did was incomplete, and you have an infection in your uterus, not your vagina. You shouldn't be asking that doctor what to do. Abortion is bad medicine, and anybody who would do an abortion on a woman for anything other than to save her life has poor medical judgment and cannot be trusted. As far as I am concerned, he botched your abortion. There shouldn't have been anything left behind to rot, but clearly the awful smell indicates that he probably didn't get everything. An abortionist doesn't like to admit he made any mistakes. He should have told you to seek medical attention locally.
Please find a church and ask them to recommend a doctor.
Yes, you should take the Vitamin D3. When you go to the pharmacy, ask for Vitamin D3 specifically. Vitamin D2 is not very effective. You need a high dose. You can't take a high dose for a long time, but you should get that now. Vitamin D3 is wonderful for a large number of different problems, including infections. If I knew what kind of infection you have, I could recommend other things, but at the moment, I don't, and you don't, either. Candida is yeast, but it may not be the only problem you have. As careless as this abortionist was, there's a good chance he didn't sterilize the instruments properly, which means you could get any kind of disease or infection from a woman he worked on earlier.
You should also take a lower dose of Vitamin D3 for the rest of your life, to protect yourself from breast cancer. If this was your first pregnancy, you are especially at risk. You will need to have your blood tested to make sure you're not getting too much. A daily dose around 5000IU is a good place to start.
Given what you have told me, your uterus needs attention as well. They may have to do a D&C to get the tissue out that is rotting.
Since you are taking an antibiotic, you also need to take a pro-biotic, to restore the good bacteria in your intestines. If you don't, you could develop some fairly severe intestinal problems. You should ask the doctor about that. But you can also get this on your own. If you can find some good, fresh yogurt, that will supply these good bacteria.
Thank you very much for the kind rating. Please take good care of yourself, and let me know how you do. Please don't ever consider risking your life with an abortion in the future.
