>Thanks again Barbara. When I went to the doctor on Thursday I went for my ultrasound report and to tell her about the sore. She looked at the sore and that is when she told me to put the neosporin on it and call her if that didn't seem to help. My doctor was also trying to prepare me for surgery. I'm having a d&c plus a hysterascopy done on January 25. Due to my periods lasting 12-14 days heavy flow. The doctors have tried me on provera and that didn't do any thing for me. I think my doctor had to much on her mind that day.
