Surgery Tomorrow

I need to stop this whole two posts in a day thing.

So I had the office hysteroscopy today. It was hell. Why? I don't know. The light, the instruments, whatever. I would have rather been knocked out. Turns out I get my wish!

My pain is being caused by scar tissue that has regrown. Not much (and even less than last time) but it's still there. She's going to remove it and then insert a balloon that will stay in my uterus for a week and hopefully prevent scar tissue from reforming.

I had 50 million questions. I started sobbing and asking if this is ever going to happen for me. She said not to worry, they just have to take these extra steps. I asked what if the scar tissue keeps growing if I get pregnant? She explained that scar tissue only forms while you are healing, so that won't happen. I then also asked what would happen if we let this go. She said probably nothing and it most likely wouldn't be a problem with pregnancy. But, she explained with my history she wants to get it cleared out.

So now I had to run around and get things ready for school. It's tough since it's almost the end of the semester and I have two semester courses, meaning that clock is ticking. Whatever. What can I do?

I'm not happy to have this done again, but if it's what I need to do, that's fine. She said she could have me come back weekly and remove it gradually in the office, but there was no way I was going to do that.

I'm also on antibiotics to prevent infection from the balloon and taking estrogen for a month. She said by making my lining thicker it will hopefully prevent scar tissue from reforming as well.

So that's that. 9:20am tomorrow.
