A song and dance

Update:

I'm hyperthyroid, which everyone seems to agree is making it difficult for me to ovulate regularly. On month #4 of meds, my levels are coming down, but the latest blood tests seem to indicate that I didn't ovulate last month, so it's taking a while to settle out. OR something else is going on.

My first referral to the Heartland Clinic here in Winnipeg, didn't go so well. Husband and I were both unimpressed by the physician we saw there, who was pretty abrupt and not particularly emotionally supportive, and assumed that I would be ok with heading straight over to St Boniface and letting him (or his partner, which he didn't even offer to introduce me to!) stick his fingers up my vagina and pump my uterus full of liquid for an ultrasound.

I declined to let him do so, and now I've got my GP shopping around for a oby/gyn who can handle fertility stuff. Heartland is the only clinic in Winnipeg. Maybe that explains his attitude? I don't know, I just got the impression that he had no real interest in me, and was just processing me as per standard operating procedure.

Also he slapped my knuckles for not bringing in my calendar with all my periods and stuff recorded on it without letting me finish my sentence and tell him I had all the pertinent shit written down on a pad of paper right there with me.

Big fat meh.
