We had our RE talk yesterday afternoon. Let's just say that I'm totally unimpressed! I left feeling more frustrated then I did when I stepped foot into the office!!! And no, it's not becuase Baby A decided to pitch a royal fit while there... :-) That was easy to handle Thank-You-Very-Much!
So. We went wanting to see what the Dr. thought about our situation and if any further testing would be suggested. He said that he does not see any point of having a Laparoscopy as he said he does not believe I have Endometriosis. He went on to say that he does not believe any other tests are needed as I respond wonderfully to the medications and all the 'ingredients' are there, it was just 'bad luck' that it has not worked thus far. I'm thinking blood work, Sonohystergram (SHG), SOMETHING! But nope. Nothing.
He said, "If you were to ask me if there was anything you could do to help out, I would say to loose weight. Eggs do not like fat." Yep. He called me fat. Okay. I'm not going to deny that I do need to get healthy and thus the weight will come off, I just do not buy that this is the reason why I'm not getting pregnant. I do not buy it becuase millions of women all over the world who are fat, and some fatter than me, have gotten pregnant with little or no problems at all!
And while I'm on a tangent... I also do not buy that I have "unexplained infertility". I have irregular cycles. I ovulate at wacky times. My ovulation is not always a good one. I am overweight which points to some hormonal problem. I just do not buy "unexplained infertility" and thus the ultra frustration for not getting any answers for further testing!
All I know is that I'm not getting any younger and well, age certainly isn't helping me any here! I mean, come on. My fingers are getting wrinkly!!!!! :-( So not kidding you. I'm just frustrated and annoyed and irritated and upset. That's all. This certainly did not help these emotions of mine...
So. All in all. According to my RE we fall under "Unexplained Infertility" and I'm fat. That's it. Those are the only two things that I've learned from him! And well, he's not really even given credit for that as I don't believe the first and the second, well, it's not a secret.
