Had my first ultrasound yesterday. Still waiting on the doctor to get the results. I called yesterday about just making an appt to come and speak with the doctor about the results, but they said that he likes to wait to review the report before he tells me when to return.
However, last night, around 6:00, I started to bleed. Red. And not like spot. Bleed. I'm thinking that its the transducer gel mixing with a burst blood vessel or an irritated cervix. I hope. I am having sharp pains near my pelvic bone up front, and I had those sorts of pains last time. Also, I keep having pains near my ovaries.
I am concerned with what the report says, essentially. What if there is something of concern in there and I have to WAIT two DAYS to learn the results? I am thinking that even though I really like this doctor, I am going to have to change boats mid stream, because I need a place that does the blood work and ultrasounds in house. I can't keep waiting two days for results when it's an emergency, which is what I think would happen.
And he has limited office hours essentially too. All day Monday, Tuesday morning and Thursday afternoon. that's it. What if I have a problem on a Friday? I'm screwed? And I have this ultrasound report to go over -- but, if I do need to come in, if I can't get in Thursday after work, I have to wait until Monday? And half the time, I can't get an appt after I am done with work, which is really frustrating. Why can't docs have better hours?
So, I'm frustrated and worried. Not good. My biggest concern, besides the bleeding if the fact that suddenly, I'm not as tired, not as nauseous. Still hungry though. And my boobs still hurt, which I guess is good. I'm having some cramping too. I just don't understand this -- I saw a heartbeat, on the ultrasound at 8 am. By 6pm, I'm bleeding red? I am more convinced than ever there is something wrong with me and I need to find out what it is. Now.
