SO ANGRY.

The doctor couldn't sterilise me using the Essure procedure.

One of my fallopian tubes is naturally 3/4 blocked. I watched the whole thing on the screen. It's mostly blocked with some sort of whitish tissue. There is a very tiny hole but it wasn't big enough for him to slip the device round it and into the tube. The device bent in half both times he tried.

I have a titanium uterus that hates me. Well I hate you too uterus. Fuck you.

I'm now booked to have the traditional style of sterilisation ( keyhole surgery and clips on the tubes ) on may 17th.

The Essure procedure itself is interesting though and at least I know how it goes now . They crank you open with a speculum, and pump your uterus full of pure water , ( which constantly falls back out into a bucket ) to inflate it enough for the doctor to get his camera and intsruments up there.

The thing to put the device in can move about so they can get it in the right place. Obviously in my case it didnt work but at least I know what the inside of my uterus looks like now which is more than most can say !.
