I had anxiety thinking of this day. The thought of little needles being poked into my body.
I will be completely honest it wasn’t that bad haha, it stung when it went in but after that it was ok. Esp when she went on top of my right ovary. Left did not hurt at all, but when I was laying there I could feel the needle on my left side. I hope that is a good sign.
I arrived and the lady was so lovely, she asked me what my story was and I told her everything, she explained to me what was going on with my ovaries, more than what the specialist did.
It then came to the point where she asked what specialist I was seeing and when I told her she did say she has heard many women who have also had a bad experience with this doctor. She has told me not to return.
She said when we cross the path of needing to go to another specialist she will give me a referral to another specialist who is apparently lovely and shows empathy lol.
Basically I need to see the acupuncturist once a week for the next 6 weeks. I hope this brings on a period.
Pretty much what was explained to me was that ovulation tablets may not even work on me like they could but it might be straight down the IVF route.. but I will cross that bridge when I come to it.
She was honestly the first professional who also asked about my mental health – she asked and how are you coping with everything.
I thought that was so lovely.
My GP and the specialist never asked me all they did was made me feel silly for thinking something was up. Made me feel like it was not important enough to worry about yet.
Anyways lets give this alternative medicine a go 🙂
I have seen some success stories online I want to speak to some people who it has worked on.
