On May 15 of this year, I had to go to my OB to have a colposcopy done – a procedure much like a pap, that is done to indicate cervical dysplasia or cancer, show evidence of HPV, or find further results on abnormal cells (the paperwork I received from the doctor was full of words ending in “sia” and “opy” and “surgery,” so this is the best I can do). That procedure was done on day 5 of my cycle, and my doctor said she didn’t see any reason why we shouldn’t go ahead and keep trying to get pregnant. As you know, we did get pregnant, and it was during that cycle! Then we lost the baby. Then I broke up with my OB. And now I see a new OB! And he’s lovely! But I doubt he would enjoy being called that! I went in to meet him a couple weeks ago, and explain about my complicated history, and seek his advice on trying to get pregnant again. He suggested we do a follow-up colposcopy since I was already there and already naked. After the exam, he told me that someone from the office would call to follow up, but like the first OB, he didn’t see any reason why we couldn’t try to have a baby! Well, someone did contact me, and the results were not so good. There is an excess amount of precancerous cells, and the way to treat it is with a Cryosurgery – freezing of the cells, allowing them to thaw, and then re-freezing. My appointment is tomorrow and I have my fingers crossed that this procedure takes care of the problem. I’m ready to have that baby these doctors keep talking about! (This is the medical explanation - I’m talking about the emotional aspect of this procedure on my personal blog http://www.onceuponacline.com/ today.) Comments (3)
