Hysteroscopy/ biopsy

The weather today couldn't have been worse for us to drive in for my hysteroscopy and biopsy. There was ice and sleet on the streets with schools and businesses closed due to road conditions. The surgery center is about 35 minutes away from where we live. My husband and I left early and drove slowly arriving safely with no issues. I was the last patient to be admitted. Everyone else was cancelled in the afternoon and tomorrow. When we left everything was covered in snow.

The nurse had to put the IV in twice as she couldn't find a vein in my left arm. Dr Yeh told me when I woke up that my uterus and tubes looked perfect. There was another doctor that walked in during the procedure to observe and also notated that they aren't used to seeing a uterus that looked that perfect. The doctor stated he didn't think anything would come back from my biopsy, but results could take a week and to stay on BC until then.

Reflections. My egg retrieval was on 1/20/17 last year. Today is 1/16/18. Exactly one year later, I am still doing IVF. I never in my wildest dreams would assume I would still be doing this a year later.

I am always grateful that I have a loving and supportive husband. Nick is my rock. He's calm and stoic and everything I need when I need it. I am lucky in that respect.
