Aggh... i've been trying to get myself to post all afternoon/evening, but just can't get there..
I got my blood test results this morning.. kind of... he was quite reluctant to tell me much at all... I had to prompt him for a lot of things...
I really didn't get that much out of it.. he wrote me out a slip to get an ultrasound, written on it "amennhorea, worried about polycystic ovaries"
I'll have to book and go in and get it done sometime this week.
I asked him what he thinks, and if he can tell me anything. He says, "It could be PCOS, but I can't diagnose it, after the ultrasound will have to refer you to GYN"
He was dancing around things as if he was worried about something but couldn't say.
Of the actual blood test results, I managed to find out prolactin levels normal, so that's good,
only things he mentioned weren't normal actually, were FSH which he says is "low" (didn't get figures, and he didn't mention LH so can't figure out ratio :/ )
and oestrogen which was "low" (113) - which is what has really stumped me. And maybe that's what stumped him, and stopped him from really suggesting anything...
And of course, me being me, I'm now more paranoid coz I don't know what the oestrogen thing means..!
All I keep thinking of is the rib I think I broke in the surf a few months ago, and haven't gotten checked out coz *surely* it's not really broken even though it was clicky and painful for a long long time, coz geez it wasn't a hard blow, and DP had said there's no way I could have broken a bone like that coz I drink so much milk!! :/ Now I'm freaking thinking noooooo maybe I have oesteoperosis or something!!
AGGGH I know I am probably overreacting and paranoid, but I am driving myself nuts and have to vent...
To top it off DP just left/got fired from his job so I have nooooo money at the moment. I get paid monthly so I'm not going to be able to see anyone non bulk-billing til the 15th! And I'm just waiting for everyone (IRL) to start criticising me for TTC with no money, but I really just want to get my body sorted out right now! I don't think I can handle any responses along the lines of "why do you need to sort out fertility issues - you shouldn't be going and getting pregnant now!" -- here I go again getting more frustrated... ggrrr..

Can anyone give me some solid answers on this, as I don't have the energy at the moment to make a new thread about it ---
How much does it cost to go to a specialist??

Thanks in advance for any help you might offer - i'm going to go have a lie down
