Just came home from our first consultation with Dr Yu of the CARE team. She is very experienced and patiently explain to us the procedures. She mentioned because of my weight, it will be harder for me so she has actually advised me to go to the LIFE centre for weight management. She has advised me to lose about 5 - 10% of my current weight. This is partially because when i becomes pregnant, i will gain 10 - 20kg. By losing weight before pregnancy, it will also lower down my risk of getting hypertension or diabetes.
She also did the endometrial biopsy as the last time i did was in year 2009. The results will only be out in 2 weeks time.
After the consultation with Dr Yu, the nurse brief us and wanted me to do some test. Initially she told me to come back with the forms which she has prepared for me to do the ultrasound and fasting blood test on the second day of my menses. She went to check with Dr Yu for some medications to start my menses. When she came back, she told me that I can do the test tomorrow. I was asked not to take any food and drinks after midnight till i finish all my blood test and ultrasound tomorrow.
We've paid about $370 for the biopsy test, consultation with Dr Yu and a super fast ultrasound by Dr Yu.
Will update on what test i'll be taking and my scanning results tomorrow.
