I was laughing so hard at the doctor's office. At first I was angry because he was telling me I was a liar and because his tests were expensive and home pregnancy tests are cheap, mine were obviously all false, or I was not reading them right. Then, I just felt sorry for him because the tests were obviously positive, and he has some serious issues to his physician abilities. I was not going to stand there and argue over something when I could see both lines so clearly and he truly did not see it. It might have been worse if he was lying just to be lying, but he really did not see it. It didn't help that he was trying to make me feel inferior to him though, and that is when I started to feel sorry for him instead of feeling upset. I did talk him into ordering me a serum test and I plan on going to the hospital to get it done tomorrow if my hubby gets off work early enough.
There is no way that many tests are going to be wrong. I read about chemical pregnancies and all that stuff on here yesterday so I understand the danger of testing early, but to be told I am not pregnant at all when the tests are so clear, made me upset.
He is a contracted doctor and I won't be going back there again if I can help it.
Since he is my 'assigned pcp' I am supposed to go through him for certain things. I did get a check-up referral for the obgyn at the Madigan Army hospital, and I have all the tests I have to take at the different hospital, which I am going to try to do tomorrow. He said he could not request a progesterone test or I would have to pay for it, not knowing the cost I could not tell him to go ahead and order it. I want to have that test, but I am waiting for this pregnancy to play out really. I am praying I don't have another miscarriage and I can honestly say that I don't FEEL like I will because I feel differently this time, but I really don't know cause I do have the horrible backache I had last miscarriage. The only thing I know for sure is that the backache has been here since I got off my period and did not start suddenly. I sincerely FEEL pregnant. Feeling does not really mean a viable pregnancy though. He won't do an hcg test cause he says I am not pregnant. I will have to go and take the blood pregnancy test and rub it in his face before he would order one.
My period is not due until tomorrow. I found out a whole week before my period was even due. He says that isn't possible.
The doctor that did my hsg test told me that having that test could not unblock tubes and was shocked when, during my test my left tube unblocked and he saw it with his own eyes.
Doctors get locked into their own superiority complexes and forget that other people have a brain to. Trial and error and learning comes from the ones who live it everyday. I have been peeing on those things for 18 months.... I know when there is a line.
The doctor that did my hsg test is in West Virginia.
I wish I did not have to go through the doctor here, but Tricare does not give you much choice since I opted for Prime instead of Standard. (With Standard you have co-pays, but with Prime, everything is covered. With Prime they pick your pcp, with Standard you can pick your own.) I just don't have the extra money to pay the medical bills that ttc would add up, so I chose Prime. Plus, because the Army hospital has a decreased cost IVF program, you have to have Prime coverage to be seen there. So I switched to Prime after we got here.
Anyhow, the tests are clearly positive. Those aren't even all the tests I have taken, those are only the first morning ones.. ALL the tests I have taken have been positive. I don't doubt that I am pregnant, but I do know that I found out more early than I ever have. This time was a 12/13 cycle with 12 days till I o'd and then my period is due tomorrow. It has been just 13 days since I ovulated. I am literally 3 weeks 5 days pregnant by doctor count and only 13 days by my o day.
Even the hubby says today's test was way darker than the one I took on 11dpo and he had Lasik..
I have the most horrible experiences with doctors.
