HSG

Well, my HSG went well!  Although that's not what I'm worried about at all.  I had to drive out to a nearby city to have it done, because the local clinic was completely booked.  My husband has been putting off his one-year checkup after breaking his leg last year, so I pressured him into scheduling an appointment at the same time, since his doctor moved out to the clinic in the other city and I wasn't sure I'd be up to driving myself home after the HSG.  He managed to get an appointment, so the timing worked perfectly.

I was extremely worried about the HSG after reading other women's posts.  I had an endometrial biopsy four years ago that left me crying for an hour afterwards and completely unable to get myself home, with no warning beforehand from the doctor's office about how painful and difficult it would be.  When I was told to take four ibuprofen an hour before the HSG, I figured it must be worse than the biopsy.  The good news is that my uterus looks fine (other than a small fibroid, which I already knew about) and my tubes are open. So I suppose as long as I have viable eggs and my husband has good healthy swimmers (keeping my fingers crossed) I should be able to get pregnant.  Theoretically.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
