When I found out wednesday that I had a CP I told the dr to schedule my hsg, like now. So I go in today at 1230. I'm so nervous. I don't know if I'm more nervous about it possibly hurting or about the results. I have ibuphrofen (sp?) to take and some panty liners.
On a side note - I hadn't told our parents any of the IF we've been dealing with. Last night I told my mom about the CP and I feel like a big weight was lifted off my shoulders. I told her the test today is a follow up. Not sure if I'll talk about the IUI - not quite ready for that but I told her I'm tired of people asking when I'll get pregnant.
UPDATE: Just got back to work. Everything was clear! Thank god I finally got some piece of good news. Hurt like hell but I survived. She had trouble getting the tool in and at one point I felt like she pinched my crotch. The dye didn't hurt but when she got the tool in that's when the cramping started. But like everyone said it was quick and she told me to keep breathing through it and that helped. I'm sure I'll have a lovely bill after this but maybe this will help our chances.
Take the ibuprofen and you will do fine! I had some bad cramping during but was over quick and was fine afterwards. I forgot to take my own pantyliner and ended up with the huge hospital pad but didn't really even need it.
Good luck! Seriously I just opened up to my mom about everything and I agree it is a huge weight lifted off. She went through m/c several times, so even though she never had to do IF treatments, she understands still.
