Vaginal Septum Update: Still Trying not to freak myself out

February 7, 2006

I went to the new Dr. today to see about removing my vaginal septum.

He was very nice and calm and said it would be a pretty simple

procedure. He wants to see my HSG results to see if he can tell if it

is DU or a SU. I think I will ask him for an MRI. I don't know how

he can tell if the middle wall has bloodflow or not, so we shall see.

I got the impression that he would know what to do, even if it is a

SU. He said he didn't want to remove the vag. septum if I needed

surgery on my uterus as well. So I feel much better. I would still

like to know what is going on in there, but I get the films Friday and

can bring them in first thing Monday.

He isn't an RE although a specialist in surgery. Do you think this is

ok? He seemed pretty knowledgable.

Thanks to all!

I had surgery in Aug to remove my rudimentary horn and right ovary (it had

twisted and was causing my severe pain) and it was done by a Ob/Gyn Oncologist

who was a surgical specialist. This doctor understood my condition and I, and

my dh, were both comfortable w/ him doing the sugery.

As long as you're comfortable and feel reassured by yr doctor I don't see a

problem with him doing the surgery.

good luck!
