  • Well they called..

    Monday, August 25, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    Can believe it…further proof this whole process is unpredictable! Practically as I hit send the phone rang…after 3+ months on Lupron I’m NOT suppressed enough to move on yet! WOW…Progesterone is fine 1.4, but Estradiol is still a bit high 117, they’d like it at 70, so I’m staying on until re-testing on Thursday. I guess any little guilt I might have been har...

  • Phew…we’re moving on

    Thursday, August 28, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    Nurse called, I’m slightly annoyed by her, I can move on to stims tonight! Annoyed by the fact she gave me NO info on the actual results, even after telling her I like to track them and know and asked specific questions like “what was my Estradiol level, how was mine lining and the cysts, what was my progesterone” yeah know….to which after a bit of hemming and hawing got ...

  • Ok I think it’s starting to sink in…

    Monday, September 29, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    After the call with the nurse about today’s results it’s more real. HCG level today is 1406, which means no more blood work, for now – yeah! A break from needles, how nice. My 1st ultra sound will be on Monday at which point I’ll technically be at 5.2 weeks, clears up the whole where the heck am I, she said I’m basically giving 2 weeks free, makes sense. Then I&rsquo...

  • First Ultra Sound

    Monday, October 6, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    So everything “looks great” according to my RN, only one! Will have the 2nd ultra on Monday 10/20 and hopefully will see heartbeat with that one, DH will be joining “us” so hopefully, plus we meet with the RE too. I can breathe easier now. I saw him/her, I guess it takes a while to be able to see anything on those things, a dark oval void/spot with a large lighter “h...

  • Biopsy Results

    Tuesday, December 23, 2008 | A Breaking News story

     
    I called the doctor's office this afternoon and got the biopsy results.  It is a combination of good and bad.    The best news and that for which I am praising God is that it is not cancer!  Praise the Lord!   It is hyperplasia.... overgrowth of the cells.   And these cells can tend to become precancerous cells.   The doctor has put...
