My temp dropped this morning, so more than likely AF will be arriving in the very near future. I am getting frustrated... As soon as she shows up I'll call my nurse at my first Dr's office to let her know, then I'm going to ask new Dr's nurse if there's another Dr. that can to the sonohysterography while mine is out on vacation. I mean really... all he needs are pictures of the shape and what it looks like. THEN if there is still something not kosher in there I don't have to wait all the longer to try again!! GRRR I am tired of waiting and I am not a patient person and if God thinks he's going to succeed in teaching me patience, it will never work and it will only piss me off more and make things a million times worse.
I am also giving up on any control whatsoever - throwing my hands up in the air.... this Dr. is known for being among the top RE's in the area, so if he says to take 100 mg and get tons of follicles and do the IUI, well he's more experienced than I, so whatever. If he's only willing to do 2 more IUIs... well that is why I am not doing another before the sonogram procedure... I don't want to waste it.
That's my vent of the day.... there may be more in the coming days due to AF...
I talked to Marie about this a little bit yesterday and she was shocked and aghast that this doctor does not do an ultrasound and make a responsible decision about whether to do the IUI re: too many follicles. She said that should be a huge red flag and you should consider a different physician. This guy sounds like a kook. What if a miracle happened and you got pregnant with 3 or more babies?! That would be terrible for you AND for the babies. Also, I remember her telling me that her insurance covered like six tries of IUI because it's well known it doesn't always work the first or second or third, etc. time (and I think you told me your insurance covers as many tries as you want). It's your money and your insurance - why should this doctor get to tell you that you may only try two more times? I hate getting advice from other people when I'm already stressed and conflicted so you can tell me to go stuff it if you want, but if it were me, I'd ask around and see if there's another RE you can see to get a second opinion...St. Louis is a big city - there've GOT to be other REs available.
