Mother Nature Hates Me, Part 2

Part 1 is below, or here.

As suspected, my period started yesterday. With a vengeance. I have always had painful periods, but the last few have been out of control. I figure it's because my hormones are all crazy from the drugs so I haven't worried too much about it. Until yesterday. I was doubled over in pain and it wasn't just because of my uterus, my intestines were also really hurting.

Then last night, Hubs and I were watching one of our favorite shows (The Tudors, have you seen it? It's sooooo good!) Anyway, I was so captivated by the plethora of beautiful men on the screen that I failed to notice that I was leaking all over the couch. I stood up to find a nice size circle of blood on the couch. Awesome. Thanks again Mother f-ing Nature! Haven't you done enough to me lately?

Now on to the good news. I called the doctor's office this morning to discuss why my body is a freak show and if the doctor is considering doing any more checking for endometriosis. Heather the Nurse said that I could come in and we could discuss pursuing that, but that it will require surgery, which I knew. We also discussed trying an IUI this cycle to increase my odds. So that's the new plan!! IUI this cycle and if it doesn't work, we will take a break and check for endo. I know it doesn't sound like good news, but it is to me. It's so nice to be at a clinic where they are actually willing to try new and more aggressive things with me. This time last year my regular ob/gyn wanted to repeat a day 21 progesterone test. I wanted to kill her. (Now that I think about it, she must be friends with that bitch Mother Nature.)

Plan B, er, C, ok maybe D is now in effect!! F you MN!

  1. Hopefully the new plan will work out and you won't need plan C, er D, er E... ;) Best wishes.

    I think I would have slapped that ob/gyn for sure.
