Hello,

Thanks for posting on HCM,

Well candizole is safe during pregnancy but I do not know much about the Dewitts kidney pills since there is no known generic name for it and there is little information as regarding the benefits or risk involved while taking this particular medication. I suggest, you quit taking it as of now and let us just hope that it did not cause much of a hassle to your unborn child.
Well, the probability of recurrence of ectopic pregnancy increases with history of previous ectopic but how ever, the chances of intrauterine pregnancy as still considerable. Presently you are about 5 weeks 5 days pregnant according to last menstrual period and at this stage, if any ectopic, there might not be symptoms as fetus is still very small. It is only after a couple of more weeks say when you will about 8 weeks pregnant that you will be able to show some symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, nausea, maybe a fever etc and if it has ruptured, you will present with vaginal bleeding coupled with above symptoms. You will just have to be patient to get the scan scheduled for 2 weeks while hoping that you are not having an ectopic pregnancy.

hope this helps
