But he prevailed. Oh, the pain. I've been through a lot. A hysteroscopy which I was put under for, 3 DNC's, and laproscopic surgery, and of course child birth. Nothing compares.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-1154650721564167672006-08-03T20:18:00.000-04:002006-08-03T20:18:00.000-04:00The answer to the HSG problem is simple: Valium! ...The answer to the HSG problem is simple: Valium! Worked great for me. Now PAIN was the hysteroscopy with saline injection. The sadistic RE told me to take 1 Aleve an hour before. My current (love him!)

I was in tears. It was so bad, I was in my "happy place" the whole time. So I hear ya(haven't experienced birth YET), but it can't be much worse than my HSG, either, LOL.<BR/><BR/>and I'm a planner, too. Must be us planners get hit w/the infertility so we can really feel out of control, huh?Soupyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01471265907902423021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-1154542785225849862006-08-02T14:19:00.000-04:002006-08-02T14:19:00.000-04:00Can I just add that, for me too, the HSG was--hand...Can I just add that, for me too, the HSG was--hands down--the most pain I've ever experienced. It was godawful. <BR/><BR/>Like you, I've since been through labor, and while that was painful and no cake walk (ended up with a forceps assist with an epidural that had worn off--um, ouch), the HSG beat it in every. single. aspect.

That Carolynn is so knowledgable, I learned stuff in her HSG write-up that I didn't learn when I had my HSG). If you need to know how to take your own blood pressure, I'm your girl, but beyond that I'm living on the outskirts of IF, renting a nice little cabin, waiting for house in town to open up so we can move.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-1154530291713037462006-08-02T10:51:00.000-04:002006-08-02T10:51:00.000-04:00I always win?
