Re: Talked to the dr's office

I will send lots of positive thought and prayers your

way. Maybe if I am lucky we will be able to ttc

together!! I am waiting for the ok for the hsg test.

I see my urologist Monday and I will see what he says.

My next af should be 3/20 and I am hoping to have

this bladder mess cleared up so I can do the hsg March

or if not April.

No one understands how badly we want to get this

stupid test out of the way. The first time I started

af back since surgery but was still having problems

with the bladder thing, I was disappointed that my ob

said to wait until everything else is better. Well,

my mom couldn't understand, she said, how can you

think about the hsg and all until you get the bladder

cleared up. Which I was in no mood to start ttc but

just wanted the piece of mind so I could know I could

start when I wanted to!! It is very hard to wait.

Hang in there.

Thanks Jen,

You are a pro. You basically told me what the nurse ended up telling

me--to start on Sunday, and that way I won't get af on the weekend.

I missed the opportunity to start on the first day of af, as I'm on

cd 3 already--so I'm waiting until Sunday.

Boy, three years of being off the pill, and now I'm going back on.

What a wild ride. At least I can have lots of sex and ditch the

raincoats! (Although I was instructed to " refrain " until after the

HSG).

Unfortunately, I was on BCP for 4 years, not knowing what my future would

bring at that point. I wonder if the pill masked pain that I would have had

indicating I had had a problem. I wouldn't recommend anyone to be on them

for long, unless you had to. I am glad they only want you on them for a

short time. So, I wish you the best of luck, and I hope your HSG brings

wonderful news! And, enjoy practicing without the raincoats!!!!!
