in TTC after 35
Well had my HSG finally, appt time was at 1pm, my Dr didn't arrive until 3:45, I was ready to walk out. Excuse my language, but that mother f'er was PAINFUL! Sure the pain was only really bad for about a minute or 2 but it definately sucked. I'm back at work now and totally fine, though I do expect I'll be spotting a bit for the next day or so.
Good news is right side is totally clear, bad news is he thinks my left side is blocked. He tried to flush extra dye in and still didn't see it come out. He did say that he needs to look at the xray tape on a different monitor because the contrast was bad on the one he was using. Is it possible something was blocking his view? But now I'm obviously freaking out.. last month all my follicles were on the left except for one, and this month my one mature follie is on the left.I'm holding onto the fact that I have been able to get KU, but clearly if I want to get this done quickly I will most likely need to continue w/ fertility treatments and move on to IVF sooner rather than later.
I was relieved that my uterus is not in fact heart shaped which I've been told by 2 different ultrasound techs. It's not even close to being heart shaped! So now of course I'll be googling blocked tube and bfp for the rest of the week..

That's an unpleasant surprise. Would it be easily fixable? I have no idea. A fixable fertility issue would be good news.
I hope you get some answers at the next monitoring appt.
*ticker warning*
I hope you don't mind my responding to your posting. I am a graduate if this board and so I lurk over here all the time and cheer you on, mostly to myself
My hsg was also really painful though temporarily so because I too had a blocked left tube. It turned out I had lots of endometriosis gumming up the works. I had a lap and when the dr pushed more dye thru the tube while I was under (they can use morr force when you are under anesthesia) it came clear. Tube opening procedures may also be done with a cannula with a hysteroscopy.
Though I got my endo cleaned out and my tube open, I still did not get pregnant without assistance, though I never got pregnant ever on my own, so it is quite possible in my case that my endo is sperm or embryo lethal.
Since you have gotten pregnant before it seems worth a try to get your tube open so you have more opportunity to conceive. That would be my advice or what I would want to do if I were in your shoes.
Oh, and as far as I can tell, if no dye spills from your tube during the hsg, then they conclude usually that it is blocked. My tube would not even fill during my hsg, so it was pretty clear.
Good luck and I hope your right side is all you need this cycle
