From blah to worse
26 Feb 2025 15:54The follow up on the IUD saga.
I finally had the gyn appmt today. It seems that the referral was not clear that most of the IUD was out. So, well, this just got escalated from IUD removal to hysteroscopy with general anesthesia. And since I'm on Zeppy, they'll have to intubate just in case, even if I stop it for a week or so.
Blah. Major blah.
OTOH, the first step in the process is getting an ultrasound to see where the bit of IUD ended up. She'll call me when we have those results, with the intent being to decide if it needs to come out or if it really can just hang out there. I mean, it's just a tiny bit of plastic and wire and it should not be in my cervix so I'm pretty ok leaving it there if she agrees.
Serves me right. 🙄
