Had my follow up appointment with the specialist today. The biopsy came back normal, as did M's sperm analysis (which resulted in a great big "I TOLD YOU SO"). One of the polyps he pulled was blocking my tube, so there was no way an egg could be fertilized. Well that solves that. He then said he was going to start me on Letrozole, in order to produce more eggs which would be followed by an HCG injection to force ovulation. I had to have a quick ultrasound first to make sure everything was ok. Well, it's not. It seems I have a "rather large" cyst on my left ovary, which means I can't start the medication until it's gone. I have to get another scan the first day of my next cycle to determine whether or not it dissolved on its own or will need help. I'm hoping it goes away by itself. The ultrasound tech explained that was why I was having severe pain on that side. Good to know? It still sucks though. After leaving I sat in my car and cried. Here I thought we'd be making a new set of plans to carry out but it ends up being more waiting.
M is trying to be supportive, but I think he realizes I need to vent & just be upset about it for a while. He kept sending me links and info on cysts, which is fine, but the fact is I still have to wait until next week to determine whether or not we can move forward.
