I have just gotten back from my ultrasound and GP appointment to find I have yet another uterine polyp that is attached to the back of my uterine wall. I was also told that 2 other uterine polyps (small) were also seen and a nabothian cyst (which she said isnt a big deal). She also said I have 17 follicles on one ovary and 25 follicles on the other.


I am seeing a specialist on Monday morning (Julie Whitehead) for the first time, as I have undergone over 5 removals of uterine polyps the last being the end of jan 2008, where I also had ovarian drilling done. I had a bunch of blood tests done today as well (I get the results on Friday), but my GP said that the results will not be positive for future conception. She said I should start thinking about adoption and that since I have had so many uterine polyps they may consider a hysterectomy. I am pretty upset and scared right now. My partner is working back late (thankfully) because I need to be in control of my emotions before he gets home. He worries so much and we both want children so bad, he will be asbolutely and positively devastated when I tell him anything about the GP appointment. I will tell him to not worry til we see the specialist on Monday but its so hard to remain positive for him when I am so scared inside. I realise my appointment is only next week but it feels so long to find out what are our options going to be.

Thanks for letting me vent.
