home from my doctor's appointment!!!

wow my head is spinning!!!

I really like her a lot...She took me into her office to talk instead of sitting in the exam room...I've never had a doctor do that before!!! She went over my records, and all my tests...She said there are a lot more blood tests they can test me for...I guess I was only given the lupus panel as far as clotting problems...They didn't test for any other kind...She has a list of things she wants to do, first is to do other blood tests...I just went in and got 15 viles of blood taken! after that if those all look normal she wants to do the thing where they stick the camera in the uterus (sorry i'm so not good at remembering medical names)...She also might send me to seattle to an RE, which I don't really want to do, 2 hours is a long ways to go to see a doctor...She said i'm good to go as far as TTC though...She is also testing my progesterone because of the spotting i'm having...She said that we will probably test it on my next cycle on CD 19...I can't remember everything she said, but she was very good and went over everything...She wants some time to look threw all my charts though...She also wants me to bring in Ella's autopsy since she couldn't find it in the computer, she wants to look at it...They were going to test me for pregnancy, but I walked out and forgot...She said some of the tests I can not be pregnant during, but i'm pretty sure i'm not pregnant...even though my spotting has now slowed back down after being heavy this morning...She agreed that me spotting so soon in my LP isn't normal...She kept all my FF print outs lol So that's about it...I wont know anything from the tests for about a week she said...I know they tested me for protein S and protein C, Factor V, and about 5 other things....oh and she said for sure that my thyroid is NOT the cause of my pregnancy losses, that every thyroid draw has been great!

sounds like an awesome appointment! I hope you get answers soon, I know how frustrating all of this is.

It's always such a good feeling to have a great apt and to get a doctor you like. It sounds like she is really proactive at looking for answers for you and I hope you get them and your bfp!

I think it's nice when you get a good doctor that is willing to go the extra mile for you. There aren't too many of those, so I'm glad you got one of the few good ones.

What a great appt. I hope you get some answers soon. The waiting can be harder than giving the blood. You should get them back just in time for next cycle though. GL and kup

oh and she still has me taking baby asprin, she said to keep taking it every day, all through my cycle...She also doesn't think my bleeding artery that i had problems with after my last 2 miscarriages will have any affect on another pregnancy (that was good to hear)...Gosh I wish I could remember everything she told me...It sure helped me feel better after knowing this cycle was a bust...I feel good about the next cycle!!! I didn't really want to be due in July any way lol
