Hi Everyone,

I went to the doctor's office today for a saline sonogram. DR March

wanted me to have another one done. Just in case someone does not

remember I had surgery with DR March in December. We did a saline

sonogram in march but it was not a very good picture. I have not had

a period. I did have some brownish pink spotting yesterday which was

a little encouraging although my cramping has been horrible. I was

excited when we finish the sonogram because my dr here in atlanta

said that it looked a lot better. You could not see the scarring on

the sonogram. He decided that DR March would want an hsg. For anyone

who is not familiar with this procedure it is a little different

because it gives a clearer picture. They use dye and it is supposed

to show how your tubes and all are working. It was very painful. They

tried over and over again with different catheters to get in. The

radiologist did this procedure and he thinks there is something

blocking which he assumed was scar tissue right above the cervix

opening. I am a little confused because of how painful it was. I was

shaking so bad. They finally gave me some medicine. I know that my

doctor has always had a difficult time with these procedures but he

did get in with a very small catheter but the strange thing is that

the saline never stays in. Has anyone had this to happen or can

explain why they have such a hard time. I was just praying that today

would be a better outcome. I guess things still looked better to my

doctor but of course I am not exactly sure what that means. I have

sent the films to DR March so I guess I will just have to wait and

see what he has to say. Thanks for listening to me and if any one has

any ideas of what is going please let me know. I have had a lot of

these tests and everytime I have had trouble. thanks again. You are

all in my prayers
