Infertility

Ugh... so ready to move on

So I was supposed to have a D&C last Tuesday, but they wouldn't do it because I had the flu the week before and had too much fluid in my lungs, and apparently that's not safe with general anesthesia.  Unfortunately, since I had the immune system of a pregnant woman (just without the viable baby of course), I found out that my flu turned into pneumonia.  

I'm scheduled for a D&C again tomorrow.  I've been on antibiotics for the past 5 days, but I am worried that I still have too much fluid in my lungs.  I'm definitely getting better, but I'm still coughing and I can still hear fluid in there.  Plus, Dr. Google says it takes pneumonia 2 weeks to clear up.  I'm afraid I'm going to be continuing in limbo land even longer.

And to add more insult to injury, I can't drink while I'm on antibiotics, so I'm having to go through this miserable time, along with the holidays, dead sober. Ugh!

    I'm so sorry you're going through this.  T&P's your way that the antibiotics did what they needed to and there's no fluid on your lungs, so you can begin the process of starting to heal.

  • I am so sorry you have to go through this!  I hope you are able to get the D&C today so that you can start to heal physically but even more emotionally.  Being in limbo is the worst and you can't start to heal until it is over.  (((HUGS)))

  • Thanks, everyone, for all of your support.  I luckily was cleared for my surgery this morning, and it went without a hitch.  I'm home now, feeling pretty good.  Knock on wood that there went the last of my complications and I can start moving on.
