Kraizy--did u take any pain killers for your HSG?

My doc did not give me any at all, but I was told from people who had it to take Ibuprofen and I did. I would say take a valum or xanax if I had to do it again LOL!!! Ask your doc to get you a script for something prior to it like sometimes you dentist will prescribe if you have anxiety with dental work.

Here it is...

50 Ultra sensitive Egens Brand Ovulation tests | eBay

Drats! I just bought 25 of the cheapies I used last time... would it be overkill to get those as well, considering I also have some Clear blue regular ones and digital ones as well? Or should I just stick with that and hope for the best? That means I'd have around 35 of them total (25 cheapies + the other better brands I already have). Do you think that will suffice or do I need more than that to make sure I catch the surge?

Suregena - I wasn't too sure of the internet cheapies at first (and it does look like they don't work for some people) so I did mine alongside a more expensive brand to compare... they both came out with the same result, so I stuck with the cheapies. Maybe you could do that for this cycle, since you have some of the better ones too? Do you have enough of the good ones for the critical dates?? That way if this cycle doesn't work out, at least you can save $$ next cycle and be confident that the cheapies won't fail you when you need them the most!

I just bought 25 cheapies and I have two boxes of the better ones... so hopefully enough. I guess I have enough to do 2 a day for two weeks if necessary... but obviously I'll probably start with one. I'm temping, also, and will be checking my cervix/CM every day. Still got some spotting from my period but it's pretty much over I think.... onto the next part!

Good luck! I have my FX for you!!!

Various place I use to track my cycle are giving me wildly different predicted ovulation dates.... sigh. 20th, 22nd, 24th, 28th! Strange...

HAHA! Whoa valum and Xanax!? A bit too strong for me so I'll just stick to ibuprofen. GOSH I'm scared now..the closer and closer I get to the day the more nervous I become when I was all excited to get the done and over with just a few days ago only because if my tubes are blocked I heard the HSG can clear out your tubes so that's exactly what I need

Now I feel terrible cause I have scared you to death! I am so sorry. I never intended to do that. I am the one freaky case where mine was just terrible. Yours will be fine and they do these tests all the time. I would maybe call the office and talk to them about your fears and see what they say you can do to make you more relaxed and have a better experience than I did. Again I am so sorry if I have made you more scared than you really should be. I promise it will be alright and really does not take that long if they can get to your cervix unlike mine that hides for dear life!!!

I cannot sleep with the closet door open. Even in my kids rooms, I shut them as well LOL, so I understand about being afraid of the dark.
