Well congratulations to all the BFP's and I am sorry to those with BFN's. I am scheduled for ER on Tuesday and they decreased my follistim from 150 to 75 yesterday because my estrogen level was too high (962). Has anybody else been on this low of dose of follistim???? Rose - that is a wonderful number of eggs... Are you sore?? Did you take off work and if so how many days? Kristen - do you know are all the ER's are as early as 4 am like Rose's was? Janice - when do they ask you how many embabies we want to put back and does the doctor recommend how many??? And by the way I saw the earlier posts with everybody saying what they do....I am an occupational therapist and love what I do!!!!thanks againMandi

Hey Mandi - The times for the ER depend on how many they are doing that day. So if they are really busy they may make some appointments earlier or later than their normal time. Good luck next week! Oh and yes, Melanee was on the lowest dosage of Gonal-F (75 iui) and she had 21 eggs retrieved and is now pregnant with twins...so being lowered down isn't a bad thing. Just means your body responds very well to the stims! Kristen

PRAISE THE LORD!!!!
Dr. Schnell just called me & told me to be in the Webster office at 9 am to sign my consents to be in the study!!!!!!!! I guess b/c I was already a current patient she is allowing me to do this. On my first ultrasound in Dec. 2006, it showed that I MIGHT have a few polyps (which would exclude me from the study) BUT Dr. Schnell said that it may have been a time in my cycle b/c my 2nd ultrasound in Jan. 2008 did not reveal polyps!!! They still have to do the hysterogram? saline thing to verify but at least I am a LOT closer to being pregnant!!!!! Thank you all so much for this support group!!! I have been keeping up with everyone & it is such a great group!!! No one understands this unless they are going through it!! ![]()

Well, test #1 was 93 and today’s test, #2 came back at 296. We are very pleased and feel blessed with these numbers. I am extremely excited, but it still doesn’t seem real. I go in on Tuesday morning for test #3 and to get more study drug. I’m a Beaumont CORM patient and am not looking forward to the drive, but the end results will be well worth it!

I just woke up/talked to Todd. He said of the 29 eggs they got, 17 were mature and all 17 were ICId. I go in tomorrow to be randomized for the study and to find out about my future babies. Thank you all for your support. I am pretty sore and thinking about going back to sleep. Please pray for good division.
