The Day Before the Appointment

Hello friends.  I just thought I would put a little update on here.  Chris and I have our fertility appointment tomorrow at 2:30.  We fought for this appointment and have waited over a year now since the other horrible appointment.  I am strangely calm but, I know, that tomorrow I will be nervous.  Tomorrow we get the results of Chris’ sample, which is good news – but, I am also going to have to fight my corner in regards to the results of the internal scan.  I have been told my Dr. M (my GP) that I should be put on Metformin to help with weight loss and to regulate my blood sugars.  By getting those under control my hormones might settle a bit (a side effect of PSOS) thus, helping with ovulation.  Whatever happens at least we’ll get some answers.  We’ll see where we are in regards of the Male Factor Fertility and get started on fixing the problems with mine.

Tomorrow, whatever the outcome, will be life changing for me, Chris, and our future family – I just hope I have, or can find, the strength to accept the outcome.

Take Two

Tomorrow is the day to take in the Sample - second try.

We are depending on Chris' little sister (who, bless her, is notoriously unreliable) to get us to the hospital within our hour window.

Fingers, toes, and eyes crossed.

This should get us on the road to see the specialist to get things moving.

And move they will, today at the doctor she told me that on the internal scan they did - all they found were a few little cysts, and said nothing of the mass that the scan tech told me she saw.

I think I am going to MAKE the doctor sit in on one with me so I can have a FINAL assessment.

All this seems VERY reminiscent of the appointment with the "doctors" (I use the term loosely) at Kings Lynn.

But I am getting ahead of myself...

One day at a time.
