Questions: 2nd opinions on SU vs. BU, WA state specialists

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Thanks so much for your responses to my plea for advice. My

sonohysterogram is tomorrow morning and though I know it's likely

they'll want to do more tests, if my OB diagnoses me as BU or SU

tomorrow, should I insist on more tests? I have read many of your

posts warning that few doctors, even specialists, really know a lot

about MA. My OB is very understanding and would refer me to an RE if

I asked her to. She and another experienced OB will be performing

the SHG, and she routinely runs my case by other OBs and

radiologists for their opinions. Did second opinions change your

diagnoses? I am just wondering how likely it is that I would need to

see another doc, and I will probably find out a lot tomorrow at my

appointment.

That said, I am also wondering about specialists in the Washington

state/Pacific Northwest region. Sorenson at Swedish Medical

Center is my peri, and I don't have an RE, but my OB will recommend

one to me if I ask. I live in Wenatchee, which is 2.5 hours from

Seattle and Spokane, and there are no specialists here. Who would

you ladies recommend? My OB is very willing to work in close

communication with any specialists and to follow their direction;

she actually used to work at Swedish with my peri. So I would need

an RE who would be willing to communicate with her regularly, etc.

Thanks so much,

IC, BU/SU??? We don't know...maybe will tomorrow!
