Good news about my saline ultrasound!

It was super crampy but only for a minute, and he had me push as much of the saline out as I could onto the wet pad and there was a lot of blood mixed with the saline. He told me it was ok if some urine came out while pushing. He gave me a pad and warned me I might leak for a few hours, which I currently am. After bloodwork and this procedure, I officially have an overly thick uterine lining and PCOS. My first impression was wrong about him because I thought he was cold and creepy. First of all he has been married to his husband for 17 years, they’ve adopted kids, and he’s just overall really funny too. He listened to my concerns and addressed them and truly had a combination of knowledge, bedside manner, and humor. I’m going on the pill now and I asked about Ozempic or Wegovy, and he admitted he’s been ozempic since January and explained how it’s worked for him but also the symptoms he had and the dietary and exercise adjustments he’s had to make on it and admitted he’s not perfect with it. I have to go back for another checkup in 6 weeks and and he gave me his direct office line, since calling their office is impossible. I’m really grateful that I FINALLY have a doctor who listens, understands, works with me, and I can tell he genuinely cares. The procedure was agonizing, but his diagnostic work and working WITH me to find a good plan of treatment really feels great. This isn’t a fetish post exactly, but I’m just so grateful for my new doctor.

Avest9771, Glad to hear everything went well.

Being in the medical field I do know one of the most important things for any patient is to feel comfortable with their doctor. And also to believe that they have a doctor that can address the issues and problems they are dealing with.

So good luck and i hope everything works out.

Yay, great to hear, @Avest9771 ! I was thinking about you since your earlier post and wondering if you’d gotten through the next part yet.

It’s truly wonderful you found a doctor you can trust and that you believe in. I’m sorry the procedure wasn’t pleasant, but now you have the knowledge you can use to help tune your lifestyle and start feeling better. Congratulations!
