Re: May cycle buddies :)

rio - geez.... having to wait until Monday... I hope you are doing okay, I think I would be bonkers. I would think they would only make you wait if it was uncertain. Maybe your levels are there but just not quite as high as they would like so they are waiting to see what happens. That is what I am ...

Re: May cycle buddies :)

my #was 132.1 which he said was great. I go back on Monday for a second level check. He said my estrogen and progesterone were not high enough to stop the shots and pills, so I will have those for a little longer.

Re: May cycle buddies :)

kitty - I have to say I am not a fan of menopur. Every time I would hope it wouldn't hurt and then the burn would come... ugh! I feel your pain. Luckily it is for a short amount of time. I hope all your little guys have grown like crazy and you have a good appointment in the morning.

Kizmet - oh wow, I feel so bad ...
