i was only just diagnosed a few months ago with asherman's. i had my

son in april 2000 and had a retained placenta. i had a d & c

immediately after the delivery. things were fine. when i stopped

breastfeeding i got my period about 6-8 weeks later just as they tell

you you will, so i didn't think anything was wrong. in retrospect

it's been light, but i never really thought much about it. it was

only when we started trying for another baby that i started to feel

something was wrong. never did i think it was this. i went and saw

dr san roman after trying for a little more than a year and after

hearing my story the first thing he said was that his gut feeling was

that i had scarring in the uterus. he sent me for and hsg, that was

hellish, they couldn't get the dye to flow in the uterus. there must

be some opening though b/c i am still getting a period. i felt

really down after this. i went back to dr san roman after the exam

and we went over all the findings and options. that's when we

scheduled the hys/lap that i will be having thurs a.m. he was pretty

optimistic today, which i don't think drs ever let on unless they are

pretty confident that they are going to be successful. i think they

tend to hedge themselves in situations like these just to be safe. i

took his optimism as a really good sign.

i am glad you called for the appt with him. i know right now it

seems so far off but at least you are on your way to getting some

answers. i didn't realize you have been dealing with this for so

long, i am so sorry. i know some of the other women have had success

with the a- list drs, but i felt so comfortable with dr san roman and

with his ability that i am going to stay with him. i know some have

seen dr palter, i think he is in plainvies. there are also 3

different drs in nyc on the a list as well. not sure if you have

consulted them or not, but good luck and i will keep you posted as to

what happens on thurs. right now i am just feeling very anxious.
