...and I am not looking forward to it. This is the second time I am getting it done and it hurt the last time.
Praying it will be better this time and that no Endo is clogging the tubes! I am still waiting to hear the results from the 8 tubes of blood they took last week. Hoping it's all good!
Thanks to the PP's for your feedback on the Metformin. I am starting to feel better. No more N/V/D! Did any of you gain weight while on it? I noticed a 2 lb gain in the last couple of days.
Wish me luck tomorrow!

Re: HSG tomorrow...
Good luck! Hopefully this time around will be less painful and (most importantly) you'll get good results!! That sounds very stressful, but you can do it! It will all be worth it in the end...
Sorry no help on the Metformin front.

Thanks all for the well wishes! The HSG went well although it was truly painful. I have a retroverted uterus and the Dr had trouble feeding the catheter through my cervix. He thought there may be some adhesions preventing it from going through. After about 15 minutes of trying to get the catheter in the right position, he finally turned on the monitor and inflated the balloon! OMG, that's is the worst part!
The dye went through the tubes perfectly! All is normal!
Thanks again all!
