how are you feeling? still bloated? pain?

Natalie—why does everyone always have to hate on us poor dentists?! LMAO… E2 levels were 2860? Wow girlfriend, that is high!

Cathy—lay off the lemon. Doctors actually recommend cranberry juice for UTIs. Try that instead

Tracilynn—what is SAHM?

Cheryl—congrats on a great fertilization report! Yeah, I was really achy after my ER in Feb too… just rest up so you’re ready to go for ET!

Tisha—that’s great news! No lupron?? Can’t wait for that to happen to me! We were supposed to have FET the same day, but I was delayed a week because AF failed to show on time …. hate her!

Candace- glad to see they are pulling back on the meds b/c you don’t want to wind up with OHSS! Congrats on the progress!

Lots of LOVE to all my other April sisters!!

Cathy

No, no, I like the chatting. I just meant that she didn't have to participate in all the conversations if she didn't want to, that we'd still be interested and supporting her.

jersey - why'd you lose your kidney? Do you have high blood pressure?

Hey Irene~

This made me believe that they werent growing very fast - but today they lowered my stims from 225 units to 150 units. The IVF cord said my estrodial level was in the 900's and they were afraid I was going to hyperstimualte so they backed down my doseage. Anyone else experiencing the same thing? I know that after one week in my lower back I can feel the pressure and I look like I am 2 months prego. I am thinking my E/R will be sat for Wed now....but will know more after u/s and b/w Sunday. Oh....any my lining was a 12 - where does it need to be at ET? I am so ready to get on with the 2WW.

Saying a big er for lots of in April!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're basically lock-step here, babycrzy! I've had a full week of stims, went in for my 2nd u/s today and had about the same number of follies as you. I also came back with a mid-900s E2 and they took me off of Menupor. I'll probably have an u/s Sunday, I have back pains and side pains and my ER will probably be Wed! I forgot to ask about my lining this time, but a few days ago mine was 9.6. Here's hoping we'll march together to the BFPs!

I am not sure where exactly the lining has to be. I know it has to be pretty thick for the ET. All I know was that I got the "looks good" and am moving on...... Sorry

My meds for this cycle are: Lupron, estrace, and PIO only.

I am assuming it is a different protocol?

Sorry for the confusion!

Ahh, that makes sense. I know Zilch about the FET protocol. It's hard to get those doctors to stop and tell you numbers, isn't it!

well sometime last yr ... i got real sick ...went to the er and had a bunch of test run ...finally i got back my dx it was renalcarcinoma i was shocked ... besides the fact that they didnt explain it to me and just handed my discharge papers and all i did was cry ... they were so cruel and insensative....when i explained it to my dh and my mom that were there they demanded a doc to talk to us... well i went to work a couple days later . had a second opnion and it was verified .... so after a bunch of test that werent fun ... the best thing to do was remove it ...i have a lil hypertension but i believe it was do to work ... i have retired from nursing right now... and work in a tattoo palor....and i love it.. its very flexible and if my dh isnt home from work i can bring my kids in .... no my bp is 100/70 when i was working as a instructor at the hosp... it was 150-160 / 90-120

wow - I'm glad you're okay. I imagine your other kidney has doubled in size and is now pulling the weight of 2 kidneys. A tattoo parlor sounds fun - I bet you see some CRAZY stuff in there! Having a flexible job means everything! I rather make less $$ and have more flexibility anyday. Of course having lots of $$ and flexibility would be ideal - hahaha

[jerseyjandj]
