A new plan.

I had my first appointment with the RE today. We went over my charts, lab work and previous surgeries. He was a little puzzled about what my pathology report stated from my second surgery, and I think was a tad surprise that nothing was done.

I brought a disc of images from my HSG and I’m glad I did. The report from the radiologist stated it was normal with spilling on both sides. But he said that he seen very little if any spilling on my right side, and there was no pooling of dye at the end like there was on my left. His impression: partially blocked right tube. Although you can see dye throughout the tube it was obviously running through it slower than the left.

The pathology report from my second laparoscopy and d&c done in 2004 pretty much stated that my right ovary is a tumor. He also believes it is covered in scar tissue from all of the cysts I have had on it. At that time my right ovary was distorted and pulled up into the pelvic brim along with the tube and adhered. Meaning Endometriosis had it stuck somewhere. He said this would explain why I have such painful ovulation pains. If I grow any follies on the right side they are “irritated” by the scar tissue.

So he has deemed my right side useless.

We also have a new plan of action, as obviously the Clomid isn’t working. So when I start my next cycle I am to call the office and have an ultrasound done before CD 3. Then from CD 3 to CD 8 I will give myself injections of FSH. This will help grow follicles. On CD 8 I will have another ultrasound and blood work. Depending on the ultrasound I will either continue the FSH injections or do an Ovidrel injection to induce ovulation. If it shows that I have no follies growing on the left side and only on the right then we will cancel this cycle and start again the next month.

Also Mr. B will have another SA done and depending on the results from that we will either do timed intercourse or have to do an IUI. The only option after that is IVF and we definitely can’t afford that right now. So we’re hoping for another normal result.

Since today is CD 19, and O day, I have about 2 weeks until my next cycle is due, unless we get pregnant this cycle and then it won’t show and we can forget all of this, lol.

So the 2 week wait begins.
