UPDATE #2 RESULTS:Thrombo Blood

That was intense. I thankfully had my friends helping me through it on text messages. I was so nervous and got teary.. The tech had me scared bc she and her supervisor were worried about taking the 20 viles from me! I have had a history of anemia. Not always but sometimes.

She consolidated to 14 viles and had the other 6 waiting if I could make it through. By vile 12 I started sweating and got spotty. We got to the 14. She filled everything all the way - some above max line and we are hoping its enough.

If not, i'll have to go back Ughhhh
If I do, someone will be driving me.

Ughhhh Here's to hoping it's enough and I can have some answers soon


Update:
Had to go back this morning for 4 more viles. They are sending it all out today at 3:00. Hopefully they have enough now to complete the tests. So glad it was only 4! Have appt with Dr P to go over everything aug 14th


Update #2 RESULTS:

I have no idea what half of this means lol Dr. P is sending me for another HSG and then if the tubes are ok, we will go from there based off of these results.

I'm gonna list what is noted as Out Of Range on the tests.

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) - 5.7 H
IgM, Total - 424 H
Alpha-Tocopherol - 35.7 H
Activated PTT - 40 H
D-Dimer, 0.54 H
MTHFR - Positive A 1 Copy

He round about told me Autoimmune issues, antibodies & blood clotting. Gave me list of supplements and said we will discuss results more and meds he would want me on after we get HSG results. No need to jump the gun on treatment if we don't even know what shape my tubes are in right now.

Anyone have any info on any of this? It's another language to me.

I also made it clear to him I don't want to do anymore treatments bc I'm done with all that. But if adding supplements and something for blood flow in with our reg. BDing, I'm game.

We'll see.

Re: Thrombo Blood

Ugh it's the worst! I tried 4 different times to get the complete panel done and could never do it. We just with the assumption I had some thrombo and treated me as if I did.
