Happily waht op are you having again? Is it to do with your cervix? xxx

 

[HappilyTTC]

Yes, Cath.

The cervical conization because of how the colposcopy went. He said that he hopes he can get all the tissue out during the conization.

 

[cathgibbs]

Why did you have that done if you don't mind me asking? Xxx

 

[HappilyTTC]

I have had abnormal pap smears for 5 years. This year, I had a pap in February, with a follow-up scheduled for August because of the abnormal paps. Well, during the interim, I had to be seen for a pap around April. The changes from Feb-April were not that much, but the changes from April-August were severe, according to the doctor. When he went in to do a biopsy during my colposcopy, he said that he couldn't perform a biopsy because of the risk of "seeding" if it was cancer. He's not certain it is cancer, but he said there are too many different types of cells on my cervix. So, he needs to perform a conization to get everything out and then worry about biopsy-ing it. He believes he can get everything out with the conization, but at this point, he is unsure of how much cervix I will retain.

Oh hun im sorry that sucks! I hope it wasn't too painful for you. When will you get the results? Xxx

 

[ladyluck84]

Oh happily...I'm not sure what your procedure involves but u had the loop excision 6 weeks ago and it wasn't nearly as bad as everyone on the Internet had made out! They asked my to do a pregnant test that morning, have they asked you?

Cath you are still very early. No I haven't done it again since the first time but that is only because hubby is away with work so I will get back at it tomorrow when he is home. Just hope I have caught ovulation as I missed Monday and today : (

 

[HappilyTTC]

I have a blood test ordered, but I just ended AF, so we know I am not pregnant and we haven't BDed in a month, so I know we aren't getting pregnant.

The colposcopy wasn't painful at all, but then again, they couldn't do the biopsy, so I didn't feel that at all of course. It was just uncomfortable. If I knew it was that easy, I wouldn't have freaked myself out so much.

As for the conization, I have to be out under general anesthesia and I will have pain pills for after, so I am thinking recovery for the first few days may hurt. Luckily, I am off Friday because of the surgery and will be out all weekend, so I know I can recover for at least 3.5 days. My procedure involves them removing a cone of the cervix, anything he feels is compromised by the cells that he saw. He said they were punctuated, had mosaicim, and leukoplakia (?) so he felt they were too severe to do the biopsy due to the chance of them being something malignant.

I am just glad this will be over Thursday. I mean, he's removing stuff, so I figure I will have some kind of answer in the next two weeks, even if that means another surgery to remove everything.

I'm relieved there will be no more of this "well, I don't know what it could be," like it's been the last few months.

You girls on here have helped me through this more than anything else. I woulda been lost and super scared, but I feel like it is what it is and I just have to move on from it.

Wow yes I have read about a cone biopsy I think mine was moderate not severe. My results initially said severe but when I went in for the colposcopy they said no moderate and I just had a local for the loop biopsy. They told me no sex for 4-6 weeks and as I had af that was 6 for me. Have they said that to you? my results came back and confirmed not cancerous fingers crossed yours will too. It's the last thing that we need on this journey!

 

[HappilyTTC]

6-8 weeks without sex for me. It's already been a month, so I think the husband is gonna go bonkers. This month has been his lack of initiation and now he will see how bad it can be without it; he's one who's very lazy in that department. He's already concerned about the no BDing; due to his lack of initiative, I will not be offering BJs during this two months, either.

FXed that my results are non cancerous OR that they get it all. We shall see. You're right- it is the last thing we need!

 

[ladyluck84]

Ha my hubby was climbing the walls. I have to say initiating it is most definitely not a problem for him! I keep saying enjoy it and the last 18 months because your never getting it this much again......until next time I want a baby : )

 

[Nina83]

Dip in temps this morning, but still above coverline. I'm trying not to stress about it, because on my Feb chart I also started to get a dip on 4dpo, 5dpo was probably implantation and then it all went back up again.
But still. It's hard not to think everything is all lost.
Why are my charts always wonky?!
I also read that flat temps before O could mean low estrogen, which could cause miscarriage. Wonderful, my Feb chart was flat and we all know how that ended.

How's everyone else doing?

 

[cathgibbs]

?Morning ladies!

Happily when can you have sex next hun??

LL how are you lovely?

MrsB I hope your having a fab holiday and the with has stayed away!

Hilslo how are you?

Nina - I have heard that also hun but I think - not 100% but if there is a dip when ov occurs that means your estrogen levels are good? I might be completely wrong though hun!

Temps are still high but bfn - fed up now! xxx

 

[Nina83]

I don't know, I thought estrogen didn't have anything to do with miscarriages, I just read that when hormones start to level out during early pregnancy, if your estrogen was lower to begin with it'll cause problems.
I did have a hormonal blood check in the first days of the cycle and all came back good. I just read a reply from a woman who seemed to "know it all" and said that. My pre-o temps have never been higher with a dip towards O.

Your chart still looks great. Hopefully it's just a late little bloomer

Where is Hilslo? I want to know how your knitting class went!

I also just noticed the other day that we're all trying for #1

 

[cathgibbs]

Yeah sorry hun I should have said that I didnt know it causes mc I dont know why I said that 'I have heard that too' Doesnt estrogen play a part in the lining?? I think the dip is the main thing though hun??

I hope so too.....starting to get fed up lol xxx

 

[Nina83]

I think I knew what you meant, it's OK. It's the first I've ever heard about it causing a MC. I knew it could maybe cause delay in ovulation.
I read this article about estrogen this morning. I'll be asking my doctor about it a well.
It seems that there's no actual proof that it can cause a MC.
I'm kind of getting fed up at how amazing our bodies actually are. I just want mine to work

 

[ladyluck84]

Nina I know its hard but try not to worry especially if bloods came back ok in the past, they maybe up again tomorrow. haven't seen hilslo on here for a while?

Day 15 buy still no positive ovulation stick?! eeerrrrr
