A couple days ago I had an HSG test.
Yes, another test to find out why the “stork” hasn’t come to our little
family yet, which is starting to miss that little bundle of joy quite frequently
now.
The test…. Well… What can I say about the test… Other than PAINFUL!!!!!
It already started when I was browsing on the net, trying to find out
what and how that test is all about (My mistake. I always HAVE TO CHECK
things on the net first. Sigh…) After I read that harmless little
article which only stated that the patient would feel a bit cramps and
nausea just like PMS (HAH!!!! ), I
already felt a little too tense about this whole thing. But, I had to, I
told myself. So, I went there with my husband. Entered the examination
room with a hard thumping heart and the nurse gave me a silly pants (It has a
hole on the “right” spot. How practical ).
The rest were the “Spread you legs-Don’t be tense-Oh my you look very
young-Where do you work-How’s your husband” kind of crap. The next
thing I knew there was this tiny.. Well, I probably shouldn’t tell you the
whole procedure here.. I want to give the women an option
Anywaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, it felt…well yeah.. Kinda like PMS but worse!
And that’s only the beginning. 1 hour later it got worse!! And I do
mean WORSE. The cramping thing.. I didn’t only feel it in my stomach
but also in my you-know-what. I couldn’t move, I couldn’t walk,
for God’s sake, I couldn’t even stand up right. All I did was cry and
eventually fell asleep from exhaustion. After 3 hours of sleep then
came the stomach cramping thing. And if
you must know, even if I’m back from the dead now, I do still feel nausea and that’s why I don’t fast today.
So, I guess now it’s my husband’s turn (hehehehehehehehehe). Next week
we’ll finally going to see the doctor. Can hardly wait what he’s gonna say. The result was I have retroflexed uterus. I hope it’s not as serious as it sounds…To think that this whole fiasco is “only” for a little human being… Well, I’m sure the pain is worth suffering for.. And I’d do it all over again if I have to.
