Heading Home

26 October 2010

Well, as for IVF I'm still in limbo until at least Thursday. I have not heard back from my regular RE despite my e-mail attempts. The fill-in Dr. is does not want to see me at all. So, I'm really feeling like an abandoned patient right now. At least the clinic nurse returns my calls. She is more reassuring that things may still change. I don't know what or who to believe anymore. So many questions are swimming around in my head.

Our original plan was to stay down here for the week to reduce all the driving back and forth to the clinic for all of the ultrasound monitoring I was told I'd be having. Since they don't want to see me for ultrasounds, we're heading back home to wait this out.

Yes, there could be more going on in my ovaries than meets the eye. Maybe my follicles just had stage fright, and we'll have a couple more cast members appear next time. There's just no way of knowing.

It took everything I had to stay the course with my meds as I was told. Part of me wanted to be naughty and inject myself with a higher dose by "mistake", and the other part wanted to quit them entirely cold turkey and save my money. The sensible part ruled the day though in the end.

We can't make decisions until we have all of the information. :wacko:

    It must be so frustrating to not have answers from your Doctors. Thank goodness for nurses eh? Hopefully Thursday things will look good and you will be able to go ahead as planned!

    You know, I'm glad that I accidentally injected a higher dose my second day on Puregon, if not I might have had NO eggs. I ended up with 3 eggs after 10 days of stims. I'm not saying you should do the same thing but if it were by accident... :) And what a dick RE to leave you hanging like that!!

    I'm so sorry that you've been left with more questions than answers, and with your regular doc out of town and a fill-in that isn't living up to your own RE :) I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers that things turn around.

    I would definitely mention that, no reason for them to leave you hanging like that!! And those thoughts have gone through my head too, especially with the puregon when I had extra...that's the devil speaking, not the angel! :)

    Limbo sucks!! So sorry and this is unacceptable that you are kept in the lurch for so long. Hoping for the best.

    Hi Silver, so discouraging, and I am so sorry that you have not heard confirmation from Dr. H. I hope you can do something nice at home to take your mind off things. Easier said than done, I know. Hang in there, and hoping for encouraging news on Thursday.
