percivalJust back from the ultrasound.
Two fibroids, one small, in the muscle, one largeish in the right hand side of my uterus, obscuring view of my right ovary. Also slight bicornate uterus. The largeish fibroid might well be a factor in delaying conception, and could make life difficult for the kid in the womb. At least my endometrium appears to be smooth. I read the radiographer's report, and she suggests another ultrasound mid-to-late cycle, to get a better picture of what's going on there. I'll hold the consultant to that.
My mother had a fibroid, and hence a C-section. They think the fibroid damaged me and didn't want another baby after me - too dangerous to have a kid with maybe even more serious problems than my dyspraxia. (Thanks, Mum, thanks, Dad. What a vote of confidence.)
I know I can still get pregnant, and there are loads of complementary methods out there for dealing wiyth my problem before the NHS even gets around to surgery.
What gets me is the WASTE of TIME. If I need an operation, I could have had that half a year ago.
I just hope the consultant gets back to me with another appointment where I can DISCUSS the results with him/her, or with whatever registrar happens to be floating around at the time.
I'm utterly, utterly, utterly disillusioned.
