I am SO freakin mad right now!!!!! Since I got a negative BETA, I called my OB to get another prescription for Clomid, as my period is obviously coming... and they said I had to call the RE, since I am seeing her for treatment... fine... can understand that... so I did.....
WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL the RE's office decides to tell me they are NOT going to treat me anymore until I have the hysto....... what-the-hell-ever-thing-I-can't-spell-and-SAID-I-don't-want-done!!!!!! Which by the way, I told the RE when I seen her last, that I want to do one more round and IF that failed, then I'd consent to having whatever they wanted done... So anyway, the nurse on the phone said "sorry, that isn't in the plan!" "Call back when your period starts and we will get you in for the test" ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I told the damn RE to her face I DID NOT want that test done until AFTER one more damn round of Clomid, she said ok... and now has scheduled this "rock solid plan" behind my back, and they are refusing to treat me now....!!!! OMG I COULD JUST FREAKING LOSE MY MIND!!!!!
So they basically want me to wait 2 more cycles.... well, you know, 2 cycles... not a big deal, UNLESS you have been TTC for 9 damn YEARSSSSSSSS!!!! 2 more cycles seems like an eternity!
All I wanted was my script for clomid... and now on top of getting that BFN (like I knew I would, I mean GOD FORBID anything ever goes right in my life!) now I am facing possibly waiting 2 more freaking cycles.... just kill me now!

Oh Kim, that is so unfair. Have you been able to talk directly to the RE? You know it is our bodies and we really should be able to do what we want under advisement. My doc wanted me to have another sonohystergram, which also would have been meant waiting out another cycle. I said I really didn't want it and he said fine no prob. That is the way it should be, I guess if he said he was really concerned there might be something there I would have gone for it, but it was really more procedural. I hope you can get this sorted out...I understand your frustration...these days every cycle is important.
That sucks. I would demand to talk to the RE not the nurse!
You can do that test and take clomid that cycle! I did and the dye worked magic! I got preggy within 1-2 cycles after it if my memory serves me right. *this was a few yrs ago*
My RE told me it is no problem to take clomid and do the HSG in the same cycle. I have a few other gal pals that did that and now have little ones. They got preggy that cycle or within the 3 months that your most fertile with this test.
I was ok'd on that too. That test is just saline and and u/s, I don't see why you can't.
I have had the SHG and the HSG before I had my polyp removed back in May 2005. I am here if you have any questions.
Hopefulcyster: I can definitely understand what you are going through. My ob did me the same way after my m/c. He told me to wait 2 mo and then I could start ttc again. When I came back, he wanted me 2 wait another cycle to do hsg and then go from there. I would speak with re directly. If all else fails, you can try online pharmacy from canada. many of these sites dont require a prescription and prescriptions are usually cheaper (just a suggestion).

Kim-- HUGS! I am so sorry. Before your next cycle you need a massage and some relaxation. You have been very stressed and through a lot. Thinking of you!
I ordered a drug called Domperidone twice (to increase breastmilk production, my supply sucked) from this pharmacy, which is in New Zealand, and was very satisfied with the service. There may be other good online pharmacies in Canada or Mexico, but this is the only one I personally will vouch for, having had experience with it. I have heard other people say they like this one: http://medsmex.com/store3/customer/ but I've never used it.
Of course, the downside is that you wouldn't be monitored - it's doubtful, but what if it made you produce too many follies? You'd have no way of knowing and would be at high risk for multiples. (And as a twin mama, of course I love my twins, but it was a VERY hard and dangerous pregnancy.)
What exactly is this test for? Is it something they're hoping could shed some light on why you miscarried so that they can prevent it next time?
I don't think it was right for her to say that you could do one more cycle, then change her mind. She should at least give you a good reason. My OB told me we could TTC right away after the m/c, but later said that we'd have to wait a while, but there was good reason for it, and I don't want another m/c so it's OK. Yeah, it was disappointing, but better than another loss.
If she didn't give you a reason why she wants you to wait, then you should demand one. If it's something like "Then we could hopefully prevent another m/c" then I think it's worth considering. If it's "Just for the hell of it." then, no, it's not.
As far as getting drugs over the internet... I'm kind of weary of that. It's your personal decision, but my opinion is that it's not the best of ideas. Especially if you were barely able to convince your RE to treat you more AT ALL, she'd probably be really pissed if she found out you were buying Clomid from another country and send you packing.
I know that another cycle is a very long time to wait, just ask your doctor for a reasonable explanation as to why she wants you to wait. If she has no good reason, then I would get a new doctor.
Oh, and don't forget to tell her that it was very rude of her to promise you one thing, then go do another.
Doctors, sheesh... In the words of my mother, "M.D. doesn't stand for Majestic Deity."
Honestly, I am not real comfortable with buying meds online, not to mention I think I had a cyst after the supposed "ovulation" I had. The pain lasted about 6-7 days, and now is gone. Occasionally I get a pain or two, but my point is... I am afraid to take (unprescribed) Clomid without DR.s supervision. Especially if I have a cyst... I have always heard that combo can make for BAD results!
I am happy to report that DH got very upset by seeing me cry, and he is now on a rampage! He is going to call her throughout the day, until he gets to talk to her! He is good like that, when he gets irritated, he makes things happen! He is SO good in these situations!
I am cramping today, so I think AF is on her way.... whatever they are planning to do, better happen SOON....!!!! I have like 5 days ...

HI Kim
I am so sorry about your RE. That just sucks....you shouldn't be treated that way ever. There is something called the patient bill of rights. It states clearly that you have the right to refuse any treatment!
Kim- I've been thinking about your situation. My question is, do you trust this physician? If not, then find one that you will be able to trust and work with. You're putting your body and your fertility under her care, so if you don't trust her medical decisions then it's not worth the risk.
If you DO feel like you trust her medical expertise, though, then it seems like you should try to find out why she's deciding on this plan of care for you. I would doubt she'd order a fairly invasive test for an abritrary reason but you should be given the courtesy to at least have the reasons explained to you.
At the end of my pregnancy when I was on bedrest, all communication with my OB's office fell apart and I had no idea what the plan of care was and I kept getting different answers every time I would call them. I ended up switching to a different office (same group, different location & physicians) where my preferred OB had moved and I have to say, it made all the difference in the world to have a Dr that I trusted in charge of my care.
Just my two cents. If you don't trust and respect her expertise then run for the hills, girl!

Thanks Jess, honestly I don't like my RE. I trust her, after all she did get me pregnant with Gabriel! I just don't care for her, or her fat-a-phobic outlook. But sadly, she is the only one in the area. She is almost an hour away from here, and the other lady is over an hour and a half from me. We live in a little hick town... LOL So, I really don't have much of a choice but to see her... since my OB doesn't do ANY treatment but Clomid.
As for the sono thing, she wanted me to do it to check for polyps, since I've had the 2 pregnancy losses. I understand why she wants it.. but HONESTLY, I really believe my problem is the progesterone.
Well .... HAPPY NEWS now!!!
I GOT MY CLOMID!!!!!!!

Hi,
Have you shared with her that you think your progesterone is the issue? Has she done/offered to do a P4 7DPO? What is her plan for progesterone support when you achieve pregnancy?
I guess I'll be in the minority here and say that she actually sounds like a conscientious doctor. Yes, it sucks to have to wait, but it also sounds like she wants to avoid another loss for you. I guess if it were me I would chose to wait and get the tests done just to be on the safe side. And if the tests show you do have a problem, there would be an opportunity to have it corrected so you could possibly avoid another heartbreaking loss.
When I was getting ready to undergo IVF, my RE was very conservative and ran numerous tests on me and DH before we were cleared for the procedure. Yes, it delayed treatment for 4 cycles, but we did find out that I had a progesterone problem and my RE was very clear with a plan of action if IVF were to work. After it was all said and done, I'm glad that we waited. I wouldn't have wanted to go through all that treatment and get pg only to lose the baby/ies.
My RE sucks big fat hairy monkey butt!!!!! 
that's not a very good thing to suck... (hehe)
I GOT MY CLOMID!!!!!!!
