So I had my appointment with my new RE, Dr. K, yesterday. I had talked to a couple of people who had met with him before and who didn't really like him that much but J and I actually really liked him. He was pretty straightforward and to the point which I liked. We talked a bit about my history and he talked about how me having thyroid cancer was a big thing and that they'll have to watch me extra closely. Ugh...I guess I try to stick my head in the sand when it comes to that. I like to pretend that it really wasn't that bad, that becuase I didn't have to have Radiation or Chemo, it was really just a blip. But...apparently not.
Anyways, he did an ultrasound on me and said that I had a lot of fibroids. None of them were particularly big but he was worried about where some of them are placed. He said that I had ovulated in the last couple of days which is good news!! He's going to do a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy on me to check what's going on though and to clean things out. Also, since we've had 3 losses, they're doing genetic and chromosone testing on both J and I. We wont' get those results back for months, but it'll be something that's good to know.
I did a bunch of blood work yesterday then if I don't get AF by Monday I need to go do some more. Then on CD2 I'll need to do some more again.
They've scheduled me for April 15th for the Lap and a follow up visit with him for the 16th. So things are actually happening. I can hardly believe it!
My mom was here visiting over the weekend which is always an interesting time. I'll have to post a separate thing about it. I'm still a bit upset with her and don't want to write a nasty post that I might later regret....
