U/S Results

I got my copy of the u/s results as well as my bloodwork done.

The bloodwork for the HCG was <2, and anything below 5 is not considered pregnant.

The Transvaginal U/S, a.k.a dildo cam, said that I have a normal size anteverted uterus with no masses. It also said that I had tiny follicles in both ovaries. The other thing is that I have a endometrial thickness of 17 mm. Hmmmmm, ok.

The Transabdominal Pelvic U/S basically said the same thing, except the follies part. Also, the report says that the thickening could be from the recent bleeding that I had but couldn't be certain about that. Said that I was mid cycle at that point, whatever that means.

So, I guess for now, I'll continue temping and go from there. After we get insurance I might splurge on a monitior. Maybe I'm missing my window of opportunity.

If I don't post again, hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving with all of your friends and loved ones.

I really hate my dr's office.

So last Friday, I finally got a hold of my dr's office....after I called and left messages. Apparently the nurse practioner was out sick. Uhhh, couldn't the front desk just tell me that?? Anywho, the u/s came back normal and fine. So I just had a really, really heavy period. I'm having her mail me a copy of my bloodwork and u/s because I have a friend that can read them....and I know google ;) So now that has all blown thru, moving on now.

Work.....oh good ole work. When I started there, I told them I need one weekend off a month to go see my step daughter. I asked for Thanksgiving weekend off and Christmas weekend off. It worked out that I have Wednesday and Friday off so all I need is Saturday and Sunday. Well I was looking at my schedule and what do you know, they have me working. Oh no!!! So I went and talked with the owner and shes going to give me those days off. Then she asked me when I was going to take up more hours....um...I'm already at 33 and that in itself is pushing it. I might add more hours to what I'm working now, but I will not add another day. I would rather have 3 days off. We'll see what happens.

Update: The ultrasounds

The pelvic one wasn't bad.....other than the fact that I had 32 oz of water in it. Just a little uncomfortable. Got up to go pee and then it was time for the dumm dumm dummmmmmm the dildo cam! She (the tech) had me reach under my gown and 'insert it' then she took over. Couldn't really see much on the screen, and it's not like I know what to look for either. I hope to hear from the dr's on Tues/Weds. Look for an update then!!

I'm not pregnant.

Which is good news. I go in Friday for a pelvic and a transvaginal ultrasound. I have to drink 32 oz of water in an hour and then I have to hold it. Should make for a fun appointment. I'm trying it today and tomorrow to see how I feel. I hope by Wednesday I get some answers as to why I was bleeding so heavy.

I'm back to work!

I thought I would never say that, but I am working. Man, oh man, am I sore! First day I got 4 clients, and of course, they all want DT, and the next day I get 5. I have a feeling that I'm going to be getting a whole lot more DT clients. One LMT doesn't like me....bc I'm the new girl and they shouldn't be hiring any new people unless they are busy. Ummm, hello? Everyday that I have worked has been busy. Whatever, its water under the bridge and I know how they work. As long as I'm making money, that all that really matters.

I hope to get more answers today as to what happened last week. Thankfully the bleeding has stopped. Still having some cramping, but otherwise I'm good. That dr's office is no longer getting my business. When I went in to get my blood drawn, I should have known that it was going to be wrong. I called for 2 days straight only for them to tell me the phelobotomis fucked up the blood draw! How the hell does that happen? So I go in Friday am and I got a different girl, thank god bc I would have had words with the other one. I ask if they can do this STAT and she tells me its up to the DR and the lab. I asked if she could call me and just let me know what is deceided. She calls and says if they got it STAT that it would be after the office is closed...fine. So I have to wait until Monday. It's too early for me to call yet, I have 20 mins.

And then, I need to call the imaging place to see how much its going to cost for a transvaginal ultrasound, i.e. dildo cam. So looking forward to that one.

I'll probably update later today or tomorrow.

So...

Here is what I know.....

Sunday, woke up to really bad cramping, took some excedrin went back to bed. Got up Monday, had more cramping, took it as AF coming (which isn't right because I had AF on Sept 17. I have been having 29 day cycles for a year. On CD 29, I had some spotting and thought AF was here, it only lasted 1 day. 8 days later, and its Sunday) So I take some extra strength Midol, not really helping, but whatever. I go and do some errans and start to feel some blood coming out on to my pad, which I had an Super Extra tampon in and just put it in 15 mins ago. Get home and holy moly a clot the size of my palm comes out. More cramping, another big ole clot. I continue to have clots, but they are getting smaller, and the bleeding is so heavy and the cramps are out of this world! I've never felt that kind of pain.

Fast forward to today (as if one day is a fast forward) and I have more bleeding and more clots. Just not as heavy. Call my new job, that I was supposed to start today, tell them what's going on and the manager is super compasionate...tells me that I can take the week off, if need be. Call my OBGYN and tell them whats going on and the fit me in. I went in, had some blood drawn and they gave me a script to have a pelvic ultrasound. I hope to get some answers tomorrow afternoon.

So....what do I know? I don't. It could be a miscarry, could be a ruptured cyst or fibroid, could be endo, could be a heavy period, I have no clue.

Now, for what its worth, I took 5 pregnancy tests after my 1 day of spotting, thinking that was AF, and all were negative. I didn't chart either so I have no idea what was going on.

I will update once I know more.

Yay!!!!

I'm so flipping excited!!! Massage Envy called me and want me to come in tomorrow for the walk through and get my uniform and then I can hopefully start on Tuesday!!!

Can't wait!!
