I'm feeling better each day but there is still some cramping and a lot of tiredness and crazy roller coaster of hormones.
I looked up what is involved in a Hysteroscopy and posted a question in the IVF forum on Facebook to ask if it required general anesthesia. The answer is probably yes. That made me immediately start to cry. I HATE going under. It scares me to death that I'll not wake up and I have no control over what is happening to me while I'm down. Plus it sounds like the recovery time, depending on how much they have to snip and inject me with saline or gas to see the possibly damaged areas of my uterus, could be longer and more painful. I thought I had gotten through the most painful part with the stims and egg retrieval! Of course excepting labor and recovery.
Plus there is the cost factor. I emailed the doctor to ask if this procedure is covered in the "package" deal for IVF but I seriously doubt it. AND I doubt our regular Kaiser coverage for fertility (50%) will pay for this but who knows. So there's more money banking on our 4 little frozen embryos and my body's ability to carry them.
Its so emotional to think we have 4 little babies in the freezer and I know I have to keep moving forward because I can't let them sit there unused.
Sigh. More couch and knitting time for me today. I'm a basket case :)
