On my Cycle Day 9 (CD9), I was scheduled to have a Saline Infusion Sonohysterography (SIS) at St. Luke's - Global. My ultrasound was at 10:30 a.m at the Women's Healthcare, 2nd floor. I brought Inay with me for emotional, and probably physical, support. Dr. Leovigildo Comia was my OB-GYN Sonologist, as referred by Dr. Guinto.

Lipid Profile and FBS

With seven blood tests done which you could read here, I now needed to have the two tests -- Lipid Profile and Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) -- done at a hospital near where I live in the province. My cousin-in-law, T, suggested that I ask a doctor to give me a request for those two blood tests, since Manila Endocrine Laboratory got my prescription after I got my blood extracted.

First Round of Blood Tests in Manila Endocrine Laboratory

After my first consultation with Dra. Valerie Guinto which I wrote about here, she requested a list of nine blood tests for me to have. She recommended that I do them in Manila Endocrine Laboratory, which was located near her clinic at Joshua Center.

Dra. Valerie T. Guinto is a perinatologist. She's an expert in maternal and fetal medicine. She's the doctor of my cousin-in-law, whom I wrote about here.

Last Saturday, together with my cousin's family, I went for my first consultation with Dra. Guinto in her clinic in Manila. Her clinic hours are from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. We arrived around 10:30 am and, the worrier in me thought that I might be in the queue for a loooong time. You know how it is with specialists and from what I've experienced with my previous Reproductive Endocrinologists, you need patience as you wait for your turn. Amazingly, when I asked the secretary to list me, I was patient #6 and Dra. Guinto was already with patient #3. Wow!
