I'm sorry to be such a haunt out here, but I'm going crazy in case you haven't noticed ;)
I had my ultrasound last Wednesday morning. I was told by my doctor to call a week later to get the results, but then the woman who did the ultrasound told me the doctor would have the report in "a day or so". I called Friday afternoon, and was told that the report was "pending" and that if I didn't hear anything Monday or Tuesday (yesterday or today), I would get a postcard saying everything was okay. Well, the uncertainty was killing me, so I called today at about 4:30. The person who answered at the office told me she would have to pull my file and get back to me. An hour later, I have heard nothing, and I'm sure that the office is now closed. So, now I'm thinking it was so bad that they have left it for the doctor so she can call me! I am out of control here. Can you tell I don't wait well?
What I guess I should be focusing on is the fact that the person I spoke with on Friday said if I didn't hear by Tuesday, everything was normal. This is just so hard.
Thanks for letting me vent - again. I am ready to just cry. :(

I hear your frustration and it just sounds so familiar. To me perimenopause just means more and more tests, although I think I'm pretty much done now. Generally speaking no news is good news and I always assume the good news now. I've had one very ugly lab result in the past year and trust me, when it's bad they call you quickly. But even with me I was started on treatment right away and a year later I am still here to continue suffering through peri ;)
Remember, ultrasounds can show lots of things, most of which are unimportant. Personally, my last one showed 2 fibroids, neither of which is large enough to treat - just watch.
So relax, pour yourself a drink, put your feet up and take comfort in knowing there's nothing serious to worry about.
