I have been so distracted and busy lately.
Between work, school and training I barely have the ability to cook and sleep properly. Thus, the bloggie, and my IF world attentions has suffered. But, seriously…who is dying to read about my laparotomy drama. Honestly.
Regardless and for the record, it’s been pushed off until November due to the fact that this three-hour, tandem surgery requires two specialists who’s dance cards are apparently almost full. But, it’s now finalized at last. So, I get to watch my poor husband fumble with our Thanksgiving turkey as I sit by and watch helplessly in the name of recovery.
All I know is, I got a “Go.Lytely” scrip hanging on my cork board laughing at me as the day before surgery grows near.
In my best Aunt Linda voice: “This get’s one ‘Oh, brother’ and three ‘Criiiiippes’!”
Well, my chickadees…looks like this FET ain’t happenin’ anytime soon.
Went in for a SHG this morning only to find out three things:
1) My left ovarian cyst has grown and the doc is adamant that the ovary, at last, needs to be removed.
2) They also had a hard time getting the catheter into my uterus given all the lovely polyps that came about. So that will need to be addressed before we do any more transfers…’cause really, what’s the point of transfer with all that crap going on.
3) Our original RE has left and moved on to a new hospital.
Ok, first of all, we always knew that left ovary was a goner at some point. It just sucks that it has to happen now and like this. Just when we were getting back on track. Ugh, anyway, it’s for the best at the end of the day. These things need to be addressed. That left ovary has caused me so many problems over the past few years, and was producing so poorly during stims that it makes sense we bid it adieu at last. According to doc, it would have eventually been the cause of many problems (some of which I had a nasty preview of a couple of years back) and I don’t really need to be waking up with obstructed bowels or ovarian torsion any day soon. I got enough problems, thank you.
The polyps were an issue before. Cleaned up at laparotomy #2 but since my last period, they have grown back.
Dr. C. being gone was a surprise. To be honest, he was all but absent from our last retrieval/transfer and the RE who ended up doing it all is head of the practice anyway. We like him a lot and feel good staying under his care as we continue. I told Chris I feel an almost mystical connection to the guy now since he was basically the doc in charge who got us pregnant earlier this year. He will be doing my lap along with another doc who worked on me at lap #2. I’m just a regular patron there! They alllllll know me.
So, it’s onto laparotomy #3 for me…
…yay…
..I mean, YAYYYY!!! Right?
Yay, I’ll be positive about this. Yay, it’s for the best. Yay, time to buck up and see the good side of more major surgery.
Right?
*sigh*
When are we ever gonna catch a break?
