@lulu1180 I'm sorry. Are they doing another SA in a few days to see what you'll be working with?
@emmasemm Thanks for that detail. Mine aren't actually close to my uterus (as far as I could see during the HSG) just really high. But I was curious if there are issues with bad fluid flowing down into my uterus. I guess we'll find out if the IUI's aren't successful. At that point I may ask for the lap before we move on to IVF.

Thank you friends. @jrm_14 Well, we'll likely still try to HIO tonight and then when/if this cycle isn't successful talk about what we want to do next.

@Avrilmai Honestly, I think I'm still kind of processing it. I didn't expect anything like this to happen and I'm still in a little bit of shock. I'm trying to focus at work so I can at least put in the half day that I had planned and I'm finding it difficult to do.

@thegirlwhowaited11 ugh endometriosis is a stupid diagnosis. I hate that the only way they can tell how bad it is is by surgery
AFM well, let's start with the good news. They didn't find anything concerning, yay and the scratch was a success. But they put the IV in and there was a little issue with it and I had a seizure!!!!

@rallykat14 something changed it—not sure if it’s the ER last cycle or the hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy this cycle. I’ve always O’d late, but the latest I’ve gotten a +opk is cd26 and today is cd27
@lulu1180 oh no! That had to be so shocking and frustrating! Hopefully it’s just a fluke. Are you going to have your hubby take another SA?
@rallykat14 oh wow!!! That’s so scary!! Have you reacted that way to any meds before?
I reached out to my doctor because I was afraid my biopsy wouldn’t last long enough to be effective for implantation and since it’s been so long and I haven’t ovulated yet they’re bringing me in for a progesterone test tomorrow. I’m not really sure what the levels are going to tell them except that I haven’t ovulated yet which I know because I’ve been temping and using opks .
I'm doing okay...it wasn't from any of the meds. Just the IV itself. I'm a big baby and she was pushing and moving it around and then I was gone. I didn't have any food because of the surgery so that may have contributed as well.

People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

@rallykat14 ugh I’m sorry!! I’m surprised they still did the surgery after you had a seizure! Atleast you were still able to get it done! Who will do the IVIG and intralipids for you?
@lulu1180 sorry I didn't make it back yesterday. Sorry to hear it was hard to get through work. I hope you are doing well and take some time for yourself this weekend.
@rallykat14 how scary! glad the procedure went well and there were no other issues.
@purplg8r I'm glad you reached out. I'm not sure what the levels will tell them, maybe just part of their standard protocol before moving forward with meds or something?

@lulu1180 I’m so sorry to hear about the confusing results and the cancelation of your IUI. I hope it was just a fluke and everything is smooth sailing from here. @rallykat14 Eek! That is terrifying and I would have completely freaked. That’s good news that the procedure itself went well, but what a scary lead-up!

Oh, @rallykat14, I'm so sorry for the money drop and now the fear. I hope everything goes smoothly with the IVIG and intralipids. Keep us in the loop when you start them and we'll be thinking of you.
@AlohaKumu That's great the biopsy came back normal! I can't believe school has started already for you!
