I've still got fingers crossed for this month, haven't given up hope yet! ]]> Thu, 15 May 2008 19:54:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17261&PID=384786&title=after-six-months-of-waiting#384786 <![CDATA[After six months of waiting... : Oh T that really sucks.

Oh T that really sucks. I am so sorry I knew your appointment was coming up and I totally forgot - blame the stress in this house at the moment - I was going to wish the best of luck for it.

So back on the TTC game then and fingers crossed you get pg this month??

Hugs Teresa, don't you just hate inconclusiveness!

Like Cuppatea said, the coeliacs test is just a blood test, Maya had it done when she was having all her allergy tests.

And yep, internal scans aren't so bad, sure they're not exactly pleasant but they're not painful and waaaay less undignified than having a VE done in pregnancy!]]> Thu, 15 May 2008 19:02:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17261&PID=384724&title=after-six-months-of-waiting#384724 <![CDATA[After six months of waiting... : I had an internal scan, its not...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17261&PID=384708&title=after-six-months-of-waiting#384708 Author: cuppatea

I had an internal scan, its not that bad. Also I was tested for coeliacs and it was just blood test, they look for antibodies over a certain amount means your body is attacking it (or something along those lines). My main source of pain was at OV time as well. I will be interested in what they come up with. I was talking to DH's aunty she has coeliacs and she thinks I might have it, my blood test was at the high end of normal so she said that could still mean that I have an intolerance to it. It was quite interesting talking to her about it all, it all seemed to make a lot of sense.

Hopefully you will get pg and not have to worry about it for a while.]]> Thu, 15 May 2008 18:48:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17261&PID=384708&title=after-six-months-of-waiting#384708 <![CDATA[After six months of waiting... : ...it was the news I dreaded:...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17261&PID=384580&title=after-six-months-of-waiting#384580 Author: busymum

...it was the news I dreaded: the specialist doesn't think I have endo.


Maybe he's right, I don't know. But at one point during our (shock: 1 hr 15 mins) appointment it sounded like the only hope he had for me was to stay on the Pill, basically for ever. I almost broke down as I told him that I hadn't waited six months just to be told to stay on the Pill. First, it's hard to get pregnant on the Pill (LOL!); second, it doesn't fix anything and my cycles are getting worse each month; third, I don't like the mood mellowness that the Pill brings.

Where to from here? A couple of months trial on Voltaren (as required) and no Pill. At next ovulation (my main source of pain, hence why he doesn't believe it is endo) I am to go to the hospital for a scan - probably internal - he believes I might have big cysts at Ov time which are the cause. Third, to go back to my GP for testing for Coeliac disease (the testing for which is probably just as awful!). My aunt has it and most of the family in her generation believe they might be gluten intolerant but can't be bothered going to the doctor to check - helpful for me!! It may be that I have both and they are aggrevating each other.

If I'm not pg in another month or two, it's up to me to go back to my GP and get another round of Voltaren or Pill, whichever I prefer.

And that's about it. We have a plan, but I'm not entirely convinced it's going to work ]]> Thu, 15 May 2008 17:07:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=17261&PID=384580&title=after-six-months-of-waiting#384580
