And so the saga my poor body has to go through continues.
So tuesday I had to undergo a HSG (Hysterosalpingogram). I have to say it was a pretty unpleasant experience. Your uterus doesn't appreciate being flooded with dye!
I suppose given some of the horror stories I had read, that I should be thankful it didn't hurt more than it did. Probably because good news we found out both my tubes are nice and clear!
But they did find a endometrial polyp, so now they are scheduling surgery to have it removed. They are hoping that this is the reason I haven't been able to get pregnant. (Other than not ovulating regularly without the use of fertility drugs -_-) .
My stomach hasn't felt right in about a week and I have no doubt its down to the cocktail of pre-natal vitamins, fertility drugs, anti-biotics (they flood your uterus with dye so you have to take them in case of infection, nice right!) 800 motrin's to deal with the cramping pain during and after the proceedure.
Ugh it will be so nice when I no longer have to pop pills daily. But they upped my dose of clomid to four pills a day, which is the maximum dose she will go to. If she doesn't feel its working I guess she will move me to injectables, which is so much more involved.
That will mean way more ultrasounds and me having to inject myself daily. I'm already so tired of being poked and prodded.
I just, think of how sucktastic it would be to put myself through all this and to be childless at the end of it. But still, I wouldn't even have the chance unless I was doing all of this right?
