That is so frustrating!!! I'm sorry it keeps working out this way!

Why don't they want you to try on your test clomid cycle. I know you

wrote before, but I've forgotten. Sorry!

Hey Joleen,

Well, here's the thing. I can't ttc on the test cycle because the dr

wants to make sure the clomid gets my progesterone up to a certain

level. If I ttc'ed and the clomid doesn't work in achieving a high

enough progesterone level, I can have another mc. I've already had 3

mcs and the ectopic, so he wants to make sure I don't have another

one. In the past, I've gotten pg very easily--so he doesn't want to

risk it unless my levels are right.

Also, there's the exasperation between the HSG and the clomid test

cycle. Originally, I wanted to do them both this cycle--but my

insurance won't cover clomid until I get my HSG results. Always

something. But now, with having to go on the pill, I couldn't do

clomid anyway.

Oy vey,

Argh! That's so frustrating. Just when you thought dealing with your

body was the toughest part, here comes another frustration. Can you

pay for the Clomid yourself to speed things up? Or is it too

expensive? I am sorry this is dragging out for so long.

How frustrating. But most important you can have the HSG this month.

I think that is a good plan. Why do you have to do the Clomid

Challenge test?

Hey a,

Well, it's not the clomid that's expensive. It's the U/S, blood

tests and doctor's interpretations (that go along with clomid) that

are expensive. I already have the clomid pills, and they cost me a

wopping $3 with my prescription plan. It is frustrating to say the

least. It's nice to know I have a good dr, but if he's never

available, what good is it?

Pam,

The clomid challenge test (you crack me up) was part of the original

protocol even before my ep. It basically relates back to my previous

miscarriages and is a way for the doctor to see if my progesterone

can get up to the levels it needs to in order to sustain a pg--

without risking another lost baby.

I am excited that I can have the HSG because deep inside I really

don't know how I'll be able to ttc anyway since I have that mass in

there. In all seriousness, I'm thinking the HSG will show I need

surgery or IVF. I truly hope I'm wrong, but how can I ttc when I

have a major mass in one tube? You know what I mean? I just want

some answers and look forward to seeing this dr that I haven't seen

or spoke to since the day I got the first metho injection (and was in

tears).

I am feeling the EXACT same way about that stupid HSG... my 2nd AF should be

here within a week or two - probably more like 2 weeks, my cycles are in the

early 30 days range, and this test is on my mind constantly. I just want to

get it over with and put this chapter behind me, and move on. Whatever

moving on means, whether its an ok to ttc or whether its another kind of

treatment or WHATEVER, I'm ready for that chapter. Enough of this!

,

I'm really happy you got the ok for the HSG, even with the delay! I feel for

you! I remember when I was on the pill, it could be started the day AF

shows, or that first Sunday following. But the reason to start on Sunday was

to make sure you don't get AF on a weekend, so if you aren't concerned with

when you're getting it, just to stop o'ing, I would start today. Double

check with your dr if you aren't sure.
