The HSG

Mom decides that she needs to go with me to this appointment. I've got class that night in Bloomsburg. She doesn't care. She'll sit around for 3 hours if she has to (turns out she went to the mall instead). She doesn't want me going alone.
I take 5 advil about an hour before my appointment. They recommended that to help with any cramping that may occur. I get to the outpatient radiology department and get a lovely hosptal robe on. The x-ray tech takes me back to the room. My stomach is going crazy with nerves. I get up on the table and in walks Dr. Wittmaack. He's a sweetie. He does his best to make me a little more comfortable.
First they stick in the speculum adn then a catheter. Then the dye is squirted in. OH THE PAIN!!! If felt like someone was cutting me. Definitely one of the more miserable things I've gone through lately. Good news is my tubes are clear. Bad news is that he saw a "mystery mass" down near the bottom of my uterus. WHAT??????
We go back to his office to discuss things. He wants me to come in after my next period to get another test (SHG) done. In the meantime we're to try on our own. Sometimes people get pregnant after the HSG because any "gunk" is blown out.
We try and try this month. I even ovulated all on my own!!! It must be a sign. We timed things just right again. ANOTHER BFN:-(
