Yesterday. Yes, yesterday was one day that goes down as very painful, physically and emotionally. I went to the GYN for a Vaginal Ultrasound. That by itself isn't so bad. If found it a little uncomfortable but some woman, don't feel anything at all. Then they did a Sonohistograph (or something like that, I can't find the paper I wrote the name on). Basically what they do is put sterile water into the uterus using a long tube. That part doesn't really hurt, it's just comffy. The pain, cramping (bad) comes when they do the ultrasound following that. This is the part I had a major problem with (physical pain and emotional pain). Since they found that the uterine wall was thicker then it should be, my GYN then took a sample of the uterine lining, which didn't hurt any where near as the ultrasound.
By this point I was in tears and having a real hard time. My GYN helped me up and could tell I wasn't doing well. He did ask what was going on and was willing to listen. At that point I just couldn't talk. All I wanted was to get out of there and get some air.

They also found a fibroid in my uterus, which is causing my irregular periods. It is up to me if I have that treated or not. I didn't ask him if it could be causing the pain in my hip and lower back, at the time I couldn't think. I'll call and see what he says. If it is at all possible that is what is causing the pain, then I'll have him remove it, otherwise, I just might leave it alone.

It will be a week to 10 days before they get the results of the biopsy back. So, it's time to sit and wait and we all know I don't do that very well. Most likely there is nothing wrong, but what he is doing is ruling out the bad stuff and I can't help but think there will be something wrong.
I just have to try to get through one day at a time. It's going to be hard, all the waiting.


As far as the appraisal goes, there is still no news. My lawyer's office was suppose to get me the number of the appraiser yesterday but the secretary didn't know where my chart was when I called her back, so my lawyer must have had it. I had asked him in the morning, if I would be out of line to call on my own, and he said no. Maybe he thought twice about it and called again on his own. He knows I'm really upset about all this. I'll call them later today and see what is going on and see if I can get the number.

Once I get the name of the appraiser, I'll list the name of my sisters lawyer and the appraiser's name. I know most of you are not in the area but, if anyone knows of anyone in the Windham area needing a lawyer or an appraiser, I want to make sure that this lawyer and appraiser don't get the business. They are very unprofessional. The best way to hurt them is to make sure they don't get work. My lawyers secretary told me yesterday, that my sisters lawyer did not like the attitude of my lawyer. I don't understand, this has been going on way to long and I don't think she is doing anything. I know she is working for my sister and doing what my sister is telling her. But where is the follow up on what is being done and where is the professionalism that is suppose to be there.

It will be a full year soon that I started this process and I have no more information then when I started. The only thing I do have is a lawyer bill (which I haven't seen yet).
Family really sucks.

The holidays are getting closer, which also means they will be over soon. I can't wait. I need them to be done and over with. Right now, what I really want to do is hide from the world until the holidays are over. That isn't possible, so I must force myself to get out there and pretend that things are okay when they really aren't.

As I get any news, I'll update you all.
