The LTTTC thread for everyone.

I am 13 dpo in cycle 19 and feeling like AF is not to far away. Am scheduled for a hysteroscopy on the 25th to remove a large polyp. Has anyone ever had one of those before? Do they hurt? Is the recovery long? Wondering if removing the polyp wil increase our chances of BFP?

I had a hysteroscopy last month to remove several small polyps, and it was nothing at all - I had no pain afterward whatsoever - literally none. My egg retrievals are worse than the hysteroscopy was. My recovery time was about 1 hr in the surgery center to let the anesthesia wear off and that was all. I was on pelvic rest for two weeks - no sex, light exercise only, etc. But I had absolutely no pain. Will yours be done under sedation? I know one woman on here whose dr didn't use sedation for it said it was the most painful test she had done... made me glad I was unconscious for mine! My dr also said most drs tend to over-dilate the cervix during the procedure and that can make it more painful as well.

And yes, removing that polyp will absolutely increase your chances - my dr said anything as small as even 1cm can hinder implantation....

Try not to worry about the procedure - recovery is very short, and it's a good thing to have done!

Crystal I know you are up already TEST PLEASE!!!!

Ok so, cramps woke me up and I thought AF had come so I didn't keep my FMU, of course it didn't start so I'm just trying to hold it for another hour and then I'll test I had more spotting last night, well its not really spotting its stringy thick cm that's pinkish that was there when I wiped and then nothing..very strange.

I do however feel like AF is about to start so I'm pretty sure it'll be a - test oh and I cleaned out under the bathroom sink on Sat for the open house and threw out a brand new box of FRER I can't believe I did that, so I only have the digital left which is why I'm trying to hold it as long as possible

 

[LLbean]

how could you throw out the FRERs!!!!!

well I hope the digital picks something up... dang it I wanted a FRER!!! LOL

 

[crystal443]

Milty- good stuff, the tests are important How many days will you be gone? Can't wait for you to test again

 

[crystal443]

how could you throw out the FRERs!!!!!

well I hope the digital picks something up... dang it I wanted a FRER!!! LOL

I'm sick to my stomach over it, I had an open box with the tests from this cycle and a new box, I thought I threw out the old box but I didn't and DH has the car this morning so I can't even go buy a box. If the digital comes back - then I might go and buy another box of FRER later.

 

[LLbean]

sigh...come on Crystal, get some FRERs! hehehe

 

[crystal443]

Milty then get some more hehehe

I'm tweaking it on my desktop now... I think I see something but again...line eye offender here so...can't say for sure

I had the picture saved to the desktop and DH inverted it and said he saw something as well its very faint but there is something there on the inverted pic

 

[crystal443]

sigh...come on Crystal, get some FRERs! hehehe

I would but its too far to walk and I cannot call DH to get more because he still thinks there's a new box under the sink I can't believe I did that

 

[LLbean]

dang it....

Crystal could the pink tinged mystery mucous be related to the new drugs you are on?

Milty I don't remember what you do for a job but good for you being able to jump on a plane like that, I would need therapy and meds I do not fly!!
Let us know how it goes!

Hi everyone! Hope everyone had a great day-I had a garbage day bc of puking and work sucking, ah well, the weekend is 4 days away!

 

[crystal443]

Jen- I was thinking the same thing, even the late AF

I don't "like" flying but I don't mind it either Your day did shound sh*t, hopefully tomorrow is better

 

[crystal443]

Ok did the digi and it was not pregnant which isn't surprising so I'm pretty sure AF is just late this month..maybe the prednisone? So hopefully it soon starts soon so we can move on to the next cycle

Sorry crystalYour chart is still looking good though

 

[crystal443]

No worries Jen its been a weird cycle from day 1 this time, I really thought my temps would be dropping by now. Unless its going to be a surprise AF either way I'll be happy to see it this time just to move on

 

[LLbean]

seriously????

 

[crystal443]

Yeah, I really think its Prednisolone making me late, it keeps feeling like its going to start but doesn't so hopefully it soon does

 

[LLbean]

I still want a FRER!!!!

 

[crystal443]

I'll give it a few days and if no AF then I'll do a FRER I'm either 16DPO or 18DPO so that will bring me up to the test date if I did O a few days later

 

[Milty]

I did get more test so we will see
