Frustration!

OK, so I had my ultrasound and blood work done today. The blood draw was fine, but when I mentioned the ultrasound the nurse says she doesn't see a note about it, and the ultrasound lady is only there Mondays and Wednesdays. Finally, they track down my doctor...who says that yes I do in fact need an ultrasound. She did look at my chart and said it looked "great." I was pleased with that...it seemed encouraging. Well, they get me squeezed in at the hospital for my ultrasound. The tech of course can't tell me anything beyond I have big follicles on my left ovary. Great, thanks. Also, my blood work won't be back until Monday.

I'm not having a good feeling about gyno's office. My Dr. seems competent, but her staff is effin' useless. I'm sorry I don't need to get crap from the receptionist at my my freaking gyno's office. I don't need dirty looks because YOU screwed up and didn't schedule my ultrasound!!!! I'm sorry that I called to clarify that I don't progesterone suppositories because I LOVE LOVE LOVE sticking weird gooey capsules up my va-jay-jay! I'm sorry that my infertility is disturbing you watching Dr. Phil on the waiting room TV.

All this makes me want to go back to RE's office. At least the nurses freaking know what PCOS is. (Oh yeah, my nurse today couldn't understand what a cyst was, and why I needed an ultrasound.) But, I would have to go back to gyno eventually, and frankly I've never had a good doctor's office before so why should this be any different!? Why do doctor's hire the rudest people they can possibly find? All the office people sound so freaking put out when you call. It drives me bonkers. I'm sorry it's your effin' JOB to answer the phones. If you don't like it quit. I know my therapist would say that I need to let this go, and 'not give her the power.' UGH! Ok, I'm going to let it go....

I just want this to work, and I want to feel like the people in charge of making it happen are doing their jobs. MH and I can't make this baby by ourselves.

UPDATE: Dr. just called I have 3 or 4 good follicles. She can't tell if I ovulated without the blood work which will be back before lunch tomorrow! YAY! So far so good...
