The Beginning!

The start of our journey was a very rough one indeed! On August 1st, I went in for my Day 3 blood work. 17 vials later, (on top of fasting) I am completely lightheaded and I almost passed out. I am VERY good with getting my blood taken on a normal basis and have never felt that way before. It was awful.

 I sent Jaci a text letting her know what happened and she insisted on picking me up (great wife). I was supposed to go into work that day and worked from home instead. 

Fast forward to the following week. On August 7th, I went in for my hysteroscopy. After worrying about this procedure for a couple of weeks, I found out that I had a right to worry. It was the most uncomfortable feeling ever (Sorry if I am scaring anyone!). It can definitely be different for everyone person. I was informed to take ibuprofen an hour before the procedure. I'm allergic to ibuprofen so I took a half of a pain killer. It didn't do anything for me. Just made me loopy and nauseous. Apparently my uterus isn't straight (big shock). There was also a biopsy done and that was even worse. All in all, it was like eating wasabi...the pain was there, but it didn't last long. The doctor (we will call him Dr. S) informed me that everything looked good and that my results would be back in about 5 days. 

I called the next week to find out that my blood work was all normal and so was my biopsy! (Relief) We haven't been able to go over the results with Dr. S yet but I did a lot of researching the results online. My Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is at 3.67. According to the million websites I looked at, that could possibly mean PCOS or that means that it is really good news? I'm stumped. Now I have to wait until my next cycle to do the  hysterosalpingogram (HSG). After the hysteroscopy, I really don't know how I feel about the HSG!
