Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The symptoms you are having are not likely to be due to pregnancy. Since you had your tubes tied 8 years ago, the chances of recanalization are very minimal.
Your symptoms are more likely to be related to a generalized viral infection or hormonal changes in the body. Please do not worry. Concentrate on having a healthy diet with plenty of fluids. The symptoms will subside without any treatment over next 4-7 days.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
