Dr. Wikipedia workin’ overtime
It looks very likely that I have Endometriosis which totally sucks. The gynedoc is still not 100% sure this is what I have so she will be running tests to confirm her suspisions.
Today she sent me for a blood and urine test to make sure that I’m not pregnant (no such luck I told her, but whatever) so that she can perform a Endometrial biopsy (can perform in her office = good) and put me on a course of progesterone to get me having my period regularly ( = bad). I go back for the test results and the biopsy in an hour (3:30pm).
Then I’ll be scheduled for an MRI so that she can get a better picture of my insides to better determine if/where the endo is (I think I’ll have to take out my bellybutton ring for this one). Who knows how long it will take for that appointment to be scheduled for.
Some other fun words that are totally bumming me out today:
Good times.
In the end, she pretty much told me that I shouldn’t try to get pregnant until after this is all sorted out. (Geez, stab me in the heart why don’t you.)
I think I’m going to get real friendly with my local liquer store sometime in the next few hours. I’m pretty sure there’s a bottle of Sangría with my name on it.
