My husband and I have been trying to conceive for about 2 years. After almost a year of trying I went to see my doctor in July 2012. She referred me to a specialist who we have been seeing since August 2012. August 2012 we had our first consultation appointment. We sat down and discussed our options. August 2012,Chris had his semen analysis. It came out good. Thank goodness. September 6, 2012 I had a HSG test done. This test was to see if I had blocked tubes. This test was uncomfortable and I was very emotional when I went in for the test. My doctor was very sensitive to my emotions and walked me though the whole test. On October 8, 2012 I went in for an ultrasound and Post-Coital test. The Ultrasound found a Cyst. 11-2-12 I went back to my doctor for another ultrasound and the cyst was still there and I also have some scar tissue. My doctor prescribed me fertility medicine which I used 3 months before looking at surgery. On 11-3-12 I started my first dose of fertility medicine. I had a laproscopic surgery on 2-1-13. During that surgery my doctor found I had Endometriosis stage 4. One 2-6-13 we went for our post-op appointment. My doctor has us starting lupron injections for three months. Then we will begin IVF soon. We go to a class for IVF in March.
This journey has been a very painful one. I never expected to be where I am today. It is really hard to see and watch everyone around you having children. It's a very empty feeling and some people are very insensitive to your feelings. I have had several people say things to me that have hurt really bad. They have no idea the emotions that this journey causes on yourself, you partner, and your marriage. Many tears have been shed through this experience. God has made me stronger and without a relationship with my God I wouldn't make it. My relationship is stronger now with God and my husband because of this journey.
