Should have posted this HSG experience earlier...

This is from last week. Worst. day. ever. I went at 10 to get my HSG and the Dr. couldn't get the catheter in because he said my cervix was so closed. Of course I started crying and was so embarrassed. So I had to go to the RE to get dilated (which was so painful, and he had to give me 3 numbing shots, which didn't feel good either) and naturally I sobbed through that whole mess. Then I went back to the radiologist and he STILL couldn't get it in. So I went through so much pain and frustration and wasted 5 hours and $300 for no HSG. SO now I have to go back next cycle which won't be until mid-April since I never have a period on my own and my RE won't give me prometrium until CD-60. I will have to go to the RE to have the catheter inserted and they will tape it and then I will have to drive to the radiologist to get the HSG. Apparently my uterus is pretty tilted, which is also making it difficult. I am sobbing. I feel so stupid for thinking that a simple 20 minute procedure would actually go the way it should. I really really hate my entire reproductive system.
