is this hopeless?
I posted previously... but to recap, I had a miscarriage on Oct. 11. AF returned Nov. 11th (full flow the 12th). Today, Nov. 14th I just had my three day FSH test, and it was a shocking 17.1!!! I am devastated. I can't believe it. In May it was 9, and in June it was 6. How could it suddenly jump so high?! Is there any remote possibility that the hormal changes created by the miscarriage made my body wacky and produce more FSH than it should have? I've found absolutely nothing to that effect anywhere, but it was worth a hope. I guess my poor egg quality caused the miscarriage.
My RE has me on the follistim pen (dose-225) for four nights, then going in to see follicle count on Tuesday. We want to do another IUI.
Is there any hope here? I'm so upset!!! I'm 37 years old.... not young, but not ancient!!

(no ultrasound was done until MC, then saw empty sac)
IUI on Nov. 25th -
Starting BCP and Lupron for next cycle
IUI on Feb. 5th -
Have appt. with new RE on Feb. 25th to discuss options, possibly moving on to DE.
He suggested modified cornell protocol, and I flunked. He canceled cycle. But, we got a suprise  on that cycle anyway (the old fashioned way!)
At 7 week US, saw that embryo stopped developing at 5 weeks.
Will do three natural cycles, then DE.
