Do you have?

Blueness...

So, I am in yesterday morning at 0:dark-thiry to get my blood drawn and ultrasound check for my upcoming pregnancy effort. After getting blood draw #787 in this whole pregnancy effort thing over the last three years, I waited in the jam-packed waiting room with all the other hopeful infertiles.

While hubby was at home still warmly tucked in bed, I was there and was declared "without a chaperone" for the trip to the back. Luckily, a nice lady sitting across from me was also solitary and we partnered up for our wand wave.

We get to the back and she goes through her check, I record her numbers, etc. Then, I got up on the table and Doctor Shoulda-been-a-baptist preacher began the check. He asked me first off, "do you have fibroids?" I nearly jumped off the table and said "NO, my uterus is FREE AND CLEAR, remember? YOU did the hysteroscopy, just weeks ago...what is it that you think you see in there???" He was surprised by my emphaticness and excitement and simply said, "oh, uhhh, I ask everyone that...everything looks fine."

WELL, I have come up with a new plan for seeing the docs. I am going to go in and when they come in with their little cheesy grin, I am going to ask "do you have Cancer? AIDS?" When they grow alarmed and mutter an answer, I'll just say "oh, I ask everyone that."

Hmpppph...

Thanks, Sarah. Yeah, they never read the notes. I told hubby that I was going to come up with a powerpoint presenation of my whole history so I don't have to repeat it with each new doc!
