Good news - almost

The doctor himself called me this morning. I thought for sure that meant bad news. However, he said that it is taking me forever, but he is 90% certain I am turning the corner. My estridiol was 82. Down from 160 or so on Monday. And, the follicle I had that was at 24mm is now 22mm. So, the doctor himself told me to come back on Monday for another u/s and blood test, and he is thinking that I'll be able to start stims thereafter.

Whew! So, hopeful I have good news Monday.

In other news, when I was in the waiting room today, I chose to sit on the little loveseat instead of the chair. They aren't that big - they're ok for a couple who don't mind cuddling, for parents with kids, and for people who don't "fit" in a chair. Well, this lady comes and plops next to me. There were open chairs at the time too. Hello??? Please stay out of my personal space!

Failure to Suppress?

I think I'm heading for a canceled cycle. I had another ultrasound and blood test this morning. I am still not suppressed. My doctor is out until Wednesday, so the coordinator scheduled me for another ultrasound and blood test on Thursday. She suggested that if I don't achieve suppression by then, that the doctor is likely to call this cycle a bust and start over.

I'm pretty annoyed by this news. However, I'd like to avoid falling into a vat of ice cream and pizza as a coping method. So, I'm trying to achieve some perspective here. Not very successful so far.
