First appt with new doc today

Julie581

Well, I just had my first appt. with Dr. Hunter today and I think I'm in love!! She was so nice, caring, understanding and didn't minimize any of my concerns at all. Unlike the condescending bastard that I last saw! 

All my blood work tests have come back good so she thinks that I have pcos, but not enough to really register through the testing. I have extra facial hair, and have had a few cysts in the past so she thinks that's the most likely culprit. I'm gonna be starting 50mg. of clomid with my next period. She wants me to do some ovulation testing too. If after three months I'm not pregnant, we'll move on from there.

It's so nice to see someone that cares for a change! I'm so happy right now lol

Great news!  A caring doctor can make all of the difference in the world.

You're not kidding!! I'm switching primary care docs too. The one I have right now couldn't even be bothered to give a damn about this. He figures that he sent me to an ob/gyn and that's all he needs to do. I'm sorry, but ahh... no. 

I still haven't told John about the mood swings warnings for the clomid though. He was shocked enough when I told him that if she's right I'll pregnant in a few months. Gonna let him have a couple of beers before I drop that little bomb on him

Good luck to you! a GOOD doc really can make a world of difference. (I wouldn;t tell DH how long it would take.... I'd just make him wait)

I am still trying to find a good primary.  Mine has to do all of the referrals to go to the RE.  I get so irritated when I have to explain to the person that does the paperwork that yes, I do need to keep going because no, I am not pregnant.  These things take time.  My original primary was wonderful but he retired.

DH has been well informed about the side effects from Clomid.  He says that he is ready but I don't think that he is.  He has been saying for months that if we could just do one IUI that I would get pregnant.  I hope he is right.

That's great! It's so important to have a doctor you feel comfortable with and have confidence in. I hope you get and easy to deal with diagnosis soon.
