Not so Good News


I went for my second appointment with hubs on 07 Mar. This appointment was supposed to review on the results of all the tests that we had done in these 2 months. 

My results did not turn out well. There are some abnormalities found based on my ultrasound scans and the Xray of the HSG that I had done 2 years ago. I am thus scheduled to go for a day op to carry out a scrapping through D&C to determine the path forward. 

I am trying hard to convince myself and stay hopeful that this is just a case of very bad hormones imbalance and had nothing to do with cancer. 

The doc did mention that if not for my abnormal results, the plan was to start us on the IVF procedure already. Sigh... 

The cost after subsidy is breakdown into $7.80 for medication and $68.50 for the consultation and another full blood count required before my day op. 

Ultrasound Pelvis

I went for the ultrasound scan of my pelvis area on 04 March. I managed to secure the first appointment of the day and so I was all done within an hour. 

KKH will provide you with a leaflet with information of the Ultrasound to prepare people before the procedure was conducted so that they will know what is to be expected. The leaflet also contains information of the Do's and Don'ts.   

The pelvis ultrasound scan was performed using both methods, Transabdominal scan (TA) and Transvaginal Scan (TV). The whole procedure takes around 30 to 45 mins.

The cost of the Pelvic Ultrasound Scan is $72 after government subsidy. We are allowed to use our Medisave to pay for this scan.
