November 28, 2012 – The Results Are In

We finally have some answers!  My HSG was yesterday and went well.  It was painful, but very quick.  It wasn’t the worst pain ever, but I am not going to volunteer to do it again.  I was very thankful that my friend came with me.  It just made everything easier.  Everything looked good on the HSG.  My uterus is well formed and the tubes are still open.  All very good news. 

Doc’s test results took a little longer to get.  The doctor called this afternoon.  There is some concern about motility and they would like to repeat the test.  They have asked Doc to take 500mg of vitamin C every day for the next 3 weeks and then be tested again.  Should the results remain the same, they will move us to insemination. 

Overall these are not bad results because we can do something about them.  It means another month off Clomid, so a nice break for us.  Doc is not thrilled about having more tests or taking additional pills, but he is a good sport and willing to give it a try.  Besides, we all know he secretly loved the 12 step directions for masturbating.  J  He did recently look at my chart and saw that it has 281 results listed.  That is 281 times that I have had a test done and waited on the results.  It gave him a little more perspective about what the last 17 months have been like for me.  Perspective is always good!
