Mumbai - Day 8

What an exhausting day, 4 hours of waiting and travelling between clinics.... I had another scan at my clinic today and Dr K still can't see my ovaries clearly. I didn't worry too much before as it was still fairly early in my cycle but by day 8 they should be as clear as day. So I was sent to the sonographer to see if he could see any better and he could see without a problem. He could also see 3 eggs growing nicely which is much better than I was told the other day. So our problem now seems that it looks like it's Dr K's ultra sound machine that's the problem. In Australia I'm sure the solution would be pretty simple, take the good machine to the clinic and use that one - problem solved. In India it's not that simple.... Because of the sex determination laws here each ultra sound machine is registered to a specific clinic and it's illegal to remove the machine from the clinic that it's registered to. It's also illegal for a Dr to operate someone elses machine without prior approval. I've been told though that it's not too difficult to get approval to use another Dr's machine. So the plan now is for the Sonographer to have a look at Dr K's machine and see if the problem really is the machine or operator error. I've been told it's more than likely a machine error and to prepare for laproscopic surgery. It's going to be a very long 2 days....
On the plus side egg retrieval day is looking like it will be on Wednesday (a day earlier than expected) so I had to change Cam's flight. He now arrives a day earlier on Monday night - yay! Having Cam here is going to make things so much better :-)
