HSG

The HSG was normal. No blocked tubes and my uterus looked good. Of course, I won't see the official report until I work on Friday, but my doctor said everything looked good. It was not as painful as I remembered. I am having some cramping this afternoon, but nothing unbearable. I had an SHG (sonohysterogram) three days after my HSG last time, and I think that was the painful test. I don't have to do that one this time, so this should be it.

My test was scheduled for 10 AM, and I arrived at 9 AM for a lab. The lab was done by about 20 after, then I sat in an imaging waiting room. They called me back by about 9:50 AM, and I got changed. The tech told me then that my doctor was in surgery and we would have to wait (not a surprise for those of you who know my doctor - I won't name him here). I always have to wait for him, even for an office visit. Kind of frustrating! My test was performed at 10:45 AM and we were leaving by 11 AM. A long time to wait for such an uneventful test.

They let Ben watch the procedure from the control room and he could see the pictures on the screen in real time - he liked that. Oh, and for those who know the stories, my doctor still didn't seem to know me from all his other patients. So much fun!

Now I wait again. I will call my RE's office as soon as I get my period (or on CD 28 - Feb 17th - if I don't get it by then) to start my first stimulation cycle. I am very excited to get things going.

Hadley is sick - AGAIN. A cold or something...today is her third day with a fever. Poor girl. I probably won't take her to the doctor. I'm guessing there's nothing they can do for her anyway since it's most likely viral. Whatever it is, I think I am getting it - my throat hurts today and I am a little congested. I cannot wait for cold and flu season to be over!
