RESULTS WERE BACK

19th Mar 09 -

We went back to KK to get our results for the previous tests. Everything was fine for dear. But for me, haiz.... small little fibroid was found on my fallopian tube and it was suspected that it had a thick nodular internal septations but no obvious internal vascularity is seen within. Which means that there is a possibiltity that my right fallopian tube was blocked and it was due to the etopic preg. Dr Tan suggested i must go for another investiagtion which was called the HYSTEROSALPINGOGRAPHY ( HSG ).

What is HSG?

This is a special X-ray examination of the womb. This structure is usually not seen well on plain X-ray examination.

The patient will be required to lie on the xray couch throughout the examinations. After cleaning the vagina with antiseptic solutions, the doctor will insert a fine tube through the vaginal into the womb. A small amt of contrast medium (X-ray dye) will be administered through the tube to outline the inner surface of the womb and the fallopian tube. Some lower abdominal cramp may be experienced at this stage.

The doctor will observe the flow of the contrast medium under TV control and x-rays will be taken to document the procedure.

I had no choice but to go for it as i knew it will be a painful procedure to go through. So i will make another appointment with the radiology dept for the test.
