    Oh babe

    I don't have any advice as I don't have my results yet but I just wanted to come in here and offer support. Maybe you should ring your GYN now that you have questions. I am sure he will understand that you were in shock at the time. You will probably get more peace of mind by asking him.

    FWIW - I still had dye on my pad up until yesterday (6 days after my lap).

    Hi Tia, I have not had a lap done before but was trying for #1 for over three years as well which was awfully painful.
    I did have the dye test done and the procedure was called a Hysterosalpingo-contrast-sonography (HyCoSy) is a transvaginal ultrasound technique in which a solution of galactose and 1% palmitic acid (Levovist) - or a mixture of air and saline - is infused into the uterine cavity and observed to flow along the Fallopian tubes to assess tubal patency.
    I had this done while I was awake and although was is some pain during the procedure I was fine afterwards.

    Perhaps Google for more information. Has this procedure been spoken about to you?

    Take care

    OH HUNNY YOU POOR THING
    i to have had the dye test done on both tubes and yep they were both blocked completly and i was awake as well just like nic i watched the hole thing.
    since then i have 2 ectopic pg in the same tube but now they have taken it out all together i also had surgery last week for one of the ectopics and when i woke up the dr told me that he had unblocked my other tube but really not sure if this will help as he also says how damaged it still is so i really wonder why he even botherd as ill prob end up with another ectopic pg mmmmmmmmmmmmm and then he only gave me an 8% chance of getting pg on my own
    the unblocked tube operation was called a TUBEOPLASTY
    hunny i hope you can get some answers and im sorry if i have confused you even more
    good luk sweet

    Thanks so much for replying guys... it means alot to me

    Amy - thanks so much hun ... I'm do want to call my gyno and ask but damn im nervous... its like he told me i need another lap why cant i accept that (i know its just me being stupid but its how i feel atm iykwim)

    Nic - about the HyCoSy is that the same sort of thing as a hsg??? I really have no idea about any of this stuff but i have been googling so much my head hurts... my gyno never mentioned anything but another LAP... which i dont really understand because a HSG just checks the tubes .. wouldnt that be easier for me???
    do u have to see a FS to have a HyCoSy done???

    Smithy - I'm so very sorry to hear abt your ectopic's ... i hope u are doing ok (well the best u can be anyway)
    Who does the tubeoplasty??? An FS..... was your an HyCoSy or HSG (if those 2 things are different)??

    Should i go back to my Gyno and ask abt a HyCoSy or HSG??? Would he give me a referal for that or would he do it

    UGH i hate being so confused

    Thankyou again for your replies.... i truely would be so lost without BB

    No advice here... just a huge squishy . I hope you can get hold of your gyno and organise further testing.

    I just wish you had better news, and not so many questions, but at least you are on a way to getting this sorted. Thinking of you.
