Pennylane,thank you.I had the flishie clips TL,and the funny thing about my surgery is Dr.Berger told my husband after the surgery that everything went well,looks good and everything is fine,but when he went in to do my reversal,he removed the filshie clip from the right tube and did the repair.But when he went to removed the left filshie clip,no clip was seen.It must have came off.I know in my tl report,clips were placed on both tubes.That's crazy.I got a copy of my tr report before I left,and everything is fine.It said nothing about scar tissue or anything,so I hope that is a good sign.I'm taking vitamin E tablets because I heard it helps with scar formation,don't know if it works,but it won't hurt to try it either.Just hope they stay open so i can get my bfp soon.I'm staying positive and hoping for nothing but the best for me and my fellow sisters no matter what the outcome is.God Bless Katrina tr 3/31/08

Katrina, you have fantastic lengths! I'm so happy for you. Can you tell me what type of TL you had? I'm really glad that your feeling better already. It is very insirational for those of us who haven't had TR yet.

Trisha,it's me Katrina and my surgery was Monday and everything went well.My lengths are r7.0 and L8.0.Just a little soreness today and a whole lot of gas,but other than everything is wonderful.Got to tell u, you will love CH,it's a nice place to be and everyone there is so sweet,loving,caring and so so helpful.If I could do it all over again I definately would.Tommorrow will be day 3 for me,so I get to take the steri-strips off Saturday and maybe I will feel a whole better.Katrina

Katrina I am glad to hear you are on the other side now. Tomorrow will be day 10 for me and I get to cut my knots. I am longing for the greatly missed soak in the tub.

Hi my name is Katrina and I too were in a very bad and abusive relationship.I have a daughter from previous marriage(10 years of marriage)because my ex didn't want anymore and at the time I thought it was the right thing to do.So we seperated in March 04 and divorced in March 05.I met my wonderful new husband that I have been married to 2 years this month.He has one child and treats my daughter like his own.He's the best thing that has ever happen to me and I thank God for sending him into my life.So we sat down talked about the surgery and decided that this is what we wanted to do, we did the the pre-payment account and when we had the the money in the account,we scheduled the surgery for the day after my B-day 3/31/08.What a great b-day present. I was so excited about the surgery I forgot all about my b-day.I couldn't go through life being married to a wonderful man and not being able to give him a a child or two that he deserves if Gods willing.Katrina
I sympathize with your past. I went through 2 abusive husbands and finally met my wonderful DH! I have read about several women getting their TL done during a bad relationship. I never thought I would want baby #5 but I want it more than ever! Welcome, we'll have to chat more about our similar situation sometime.

Elizabeth, Welcome to the board. I had my tubal ligation for very similar reasons as you did. I am now married to a wonderful husband. We had our TR in November and are waiting on God's timing. Good luck with your journey!
