still waiting for that HSG
I just need to vent a little today. I had an appointment for the HSG this morning so I had to take a few hours off from work, and endure traffic jam to the hospital. I got there a little early so I could fill out the forms, etc. I haven’t even started yet when they called me. Then the nurse asked if I took the antibiotics. I said “what antibiotics? Nobody told me to take antibiotics, I did not get any prescription for it”. So she looked at me and disappeared inside the x-ray room. She came back and said, “we’ll have to reschedule you because you should’ve taken antibiotics first before we can do the procedure. Can you come back on Thursday?”. I got a little upset and told her that they should’ve told me what I needed to do before I came, they were very prompt at billingĀ me (over the phone!) and nobody mentioned to me that taking antibiotics is part of the process! She disappeared again, and this time the head nurse came and was very apologetic. Whatever. Of course I had no choice but to take the next appointment - they wouldn’t do the procedure no matter what I say, anyway. It’s their protocol. Grrr. So now i have to re-schedule my appointment with the endocrinologist, and change work schedules, too. So far, all our blood tests, semen analysis, urinalysis, etc for turned out normal. I am hoping nothing unusual shows up on this procedure so we can just relax and enjoy sex again.
