Cysts! UG!

I knew it! Ever since i started the Lupron 2 weeks ago ive felt like my body was trying to ovulate and ive had the stretchy fertile CM. So the baseline showed 2 cysts...one 12.5mm on the left and a 25mm on the right! So ill most likely stay on the Lupron until they dissapate on their own, which could take 1-2 weeks. Im hoping they will increase my Lupron and start me on Provera to get this going. They are going to call me in the next few hours to let me know what the deal is. I dont care how long i have to wait, i just need the end result to be POSITIVE!!!

Incompentence or Miscommunication?

So tomorrow is the big day to start everything again. Im pretty nuetral (or pushing it all away for protection reasons). I had 2 consults with Dr. P a few weeks ago because i was so undecided and feeling lost on which direction to go in (PGD or no PGD)... She basically gave me a scenerio that what if i went through the IVF and got pregnant and lost the baby and found out it was a genetic abnormality that could have been prevented, how would i feel?

That stuck with me...Pete wants the PGD and Dr P (and not so many words) thinks its the best too. I have the ability to do the testing and its paid for and it worked before so im pretty sure we are going for it again.

So 2 weeks ago i was told id get my plan in a few days (which i knew meant the week of my day 21) so this past monday i still havent heard from them so i called. Thankfully that day i got a call saying my meds were on order. So the pharmacy calls me and the Doxycycline is not ordered and neither is my Medrol. UG!

So i finally got the Doxy on order and they gave me 3 weeks worth not a months worth like she said i needed?? AND no one told me when im suppose to start it! Soooo i had to call them back AGAIN to find all that out.

Then Pete picks up the package and the phamracist says they never got back to her about the Medrol - WTH?! So i called them yesterday after to ask about the Doxy and why the Medrol wasnt in the package. This morning i had a chiro. appt so i missed the call and the nurse said "since you are NOT doing a PGD cycle we dont use Medrol"....WHAT..i was going to use the Medrol either way and i AM doing PGD...so i had to call them yet AGAIN to explain it all to them.

So i dont know if this is Dr. P's fault for not being clear or if the nurses are not reading the notes thouroughly and just going off of how things were last time. All i know is this is frustrating enough and for me to constantly be checking on everything is super annoying.

I still havent heard back from them about the Medrol or about the Doxy....

On the positive day 1 is tomorrow and hopefully a month from today ill be pretty close to having my ER for my lucky number 3 cycle!

Waiting on a plan...

Insurance/Financial people - check
Dr. - check
Appt for sonohystergram - check
waiting for the "plan" - pending

The last 2 days ive been on the phone with just about everybody over at my RE's office to get this cycle started. I had to call financial so they take petes insurance off so they dont know im doing IVF without PGD...but it was already submitted but they told me it wont hurt me if i decide not to use the PGD but i use it later on (hopefully i wont have to).

Dr. P said i could do another SHG to "ease my mind" which i feel like is going to be just fine but i feel like i have to do it to cover all my bases.

Dr. P knows im not doing PGD and i didnt get a call with her saying "are you sure???" so im guessing she understands my decision.

The coordinator called me today and said shes just waiting for Dr. P to get back to her with a plan so hopefully ill know more by the end of the week.

So honestly, im having a real hard time shaking this off. I went into this thinking "we know what worked for Jack so we'll do it again and all will be good"....this chemical pregnancy really is messig with my head!

One more pregnancy...if it ends, then i think i may be done.
