Update on yesterday's appt
Thanks gals for encouraging me yesterday regarding my doctor wanting to discus IUI. Here is a quick update on how things went...
First of all, this is the BEST doctor I've ever had and for our first appointment together, I was very comfortable with him and I felt to relieved that someone in the medical field was finally taking us seriously. If you've kept up with my doctor drama, you know this is huge. Anyway, he wants to do an x-ray of my tubes (here we go again) to make sure that they are clear and healthy. I will also be having my blood drawn four times next cycle to monitor changes such as estrogen and progesterone. I'm staying at 100mg with my Clomid and we talked about injections but that doesn't seem to be in our immediate plan. DH has to go back for a second s/e and depending on how his results turn out, an IUI will be scheduled.
Doctor wanted to do a lot of the testing yesterday, especially the x-ray of tubes because he fears that I may have contracted an STD after being raped and it may have damaged my tubes. Lovely. I have ZERO signs or indicators that I have an STD (I feel so gross just saying that) but he said that it is common in women who have been abused to be clueless about such things until they try to conceive. He did a pap and should have those results back by Friday but he didn't want to pursue any of the other tests until after my next period ends...which leads me to today, 12DPO. First cycle on Clomid and trying very hard to avoid the store for tests.
So that's the update...sorry so long. Hope you ladies are doing well! I cannot tell you how much you encourage me and keep me inspired. You rock!
