I am freaking out. Just came back from my post-op appt with dr and got bad news. I had a hysteroscopy with a D & C done. They removed a polyp and of couse it was biopsied. Turns out I have endomtritis. Which is an inflammation of my lining and Hyperplasia which is an over growth of tissue. This can be a precancerous thing. The inflammation is an infection. Now they are putting me on antiobotics for 2 weeks and then they are doing another endometrial biopsy to rule out cancer. The whole thing is a big mess. I am totally blown out of the water with this. My mom died of ovarian cancer and now I hear I may have an endometrial precancer thing. If they can't get rid of hyperplasia they will want to do a hysterectomy. HOW THE HELL AM I EVER GOING TO HAVE A BABY!!!!!!!!!
I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH MORE I CAN TAKE.

I called DH hysterical crying when I left the dr office. He was on his way to the airport to Canada for a business trip. He came straight home to be with me and told his boss he had to cancel trip. What a dear thank god I have him.

Teener,
This is awful news. I am so sorry to hear that you are going through this.

My prayers are with you more than ever -- my mom had uteran cancer and I have been fearful of it my whole life... I know this must be really stressing you out...maybe it's a good thing that they caught whateverit is so early -- if you hadn't been under such intense monitoring, perhaps the situation could be much worse.

Anyway, I pray it's just a minor bug and you are in perfect baby making health!!!

Oh Teener (((HUGS)))
I hope all goes well with the biopsy...I will be praying for you and DH. Maybe it will all end up being not as major as thought right now. You are in my thoughts and prayers! Keep us posted!

How horrible for you to have to go through something like this after all you have been through already. Hopefully, it will only be an infection and not the precancerous tissue they were thinking it might be. If, in the worst case scenario, it is, you need to put yourself first and do what you need to to make sure that you will be okay. I know in all this infertility mess, we put ourselves through all kinds of procedures, subject ourselves to all kinds of meds and chemicals, and sometimes we lose sight of the fact that we still need to take care of ourselves as well. I pray for you that you are not put in the position to have to make such choices, and I will be thinking about you and your DH-he sounds great and I'm sure he would want to do whatever you guys need to do to keep you healthy and okay. Are you going for more testing after your 2 weeks of antibiotics? A big hug for you both.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I will keep you in my prayers that it's not anything more than an infection... Take care of yourself,
Denise

Teener,

I am so sorry http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/frown.gif Just remember, though, they have to check everything out if it's at all suspicious - so try to remain positive. And he said 'pre-cancerous' right? So it sounds like it would be early even if that is what it is. Keep your chin up and try to take this one step at a time. We are all pulling for you. Take care of yourself! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/heart.gif

Please don't jump to thoughts of cancer, honey. I know it must be hard to do, especially with what has happened in the past, but please just don't. Stay strong and know that things are going to be okay. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif As hard as it seems, you need to stay strong.

You are in my prayers, honey!

Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prays. This board is so great for the support. I put a call in to my RE and the nurse understands my concern and said she will have the RE call me back today. She says even if I have the Hyperplasia they can probably treat it. It could take a long time to treat and may be pretty involved but I want to keep my uterus.

In the meantime I am on strong antiobotics for 2 weeks to try to clear up this infection I got they believe from my IUI's. Then I go in on Aug 21 for a biopsy.
I hope the RE calls me with some positive news tonight. If he is optimistic that will help me feel better. Just when you think you have heard of everything from these boards they throw a new disease at ya. My DH is only worried about me and I am just worried about doing IVF to get pregnant. He is a reck over this. He left for work today and got all the way to work and realized he left his briefcase home and had to come all the way back. Today he calls me every few hours to make sure I am OK.
Thanks again everyone for all your support. I believe in the power of pray, so if you find it in your heart please pray for me.
Thanks, Tina
