Very interesting appointment to get a second opinion of my crazy cycles with Dr. B., a young ob gyn who I found by typing in "best ob gyn in (city)." BTW- he asked how I found him and I told him just that. He laughed & said that was nice to know and I told him to go home and "google himself." Seemed like it took away some tension and made it much easier to chat after that. He really did have several great reviews from patients and I just had a good feeling. He was very easy to talk to and I liked his "straight talk." For example, he said "so you've been to a couple other ob gyn's --- what would you like from me--- what's the goal" and I responded "regulate my cycles, help me ovulate, and getting pregnant would just be icing on the cake." I was there for 3 hours and the end treatment plan includes 2 months of birth control and a diagnostic lap next week for Dr. B to repeat several procedures I had done in my early IF testing days... HSG, hysteroscopy (or however that's spelled), remove any endo... won't be my first rodeo but it's strange to think about it all being done in one visit. Although I (hopefully) won't be aware of anything going on! Embarrassing moment today- he orderd some blood work and the nurse said "you don't get sick or pass out do you?" and I said, with much confidence, "oh, that's
mind over matter- no, I've had this done a time or two" and guess what? The nerve "rolled" with the needle & it really hurt and I started thinking about it and I came seconds away from passing out AND threw up! Serves me right for the "
mind over matter" overly confident attitude. Something interesting is that Dr. B can do IUI's in the ob-gyn... and he says it is less expensive than through the RE. Sounds good to me! After we go through 2 months of bc, he wants a chance to try Cl.omid again with u/s monitoring. He acted like he was up for the challenge so I'm optimistic that this is going to be the start of something really good:]
