For F*cks Sake - No results LIMBO

edited September 2014 in Infertility
Blood draw this morning for 9dp5dt beta results. Private lab (not connected to clinic) must have been delayed because the clinic didn't get our results and closed without even calling me. FOR THE WEEKEND. So even though I had a negative HPT this morning and I know that there's a 99.9999% likelihood our very last hope (last cycle we can afford) has failed, I can't even get the f*cking closure I need. I still have meds to take until I 'officially' get my BFN. Do I keep taking them? Stop? Just stop if AF comes?

This is so incredibly sh*tty and feels way worse than the BFN I was already expecting.
30 yrs, healthy & TTC since April 2010 
DH 32yrs & healthy
*unexplained infertility* 

Regularly access alternative medicine to supplement a lack of resources in our geographical area.
  • Three rounds of clomid (50mg days 3-7) were useless.
  • IUI#1 w/clomid & HCG in May 2013, BFN.
  • IUI#2 w/clomid & HCG on July 23rd. BFN.
  • IUI #3 in August cancelled last minute, due to lab error.
  • IVF#1 - Started Gonal F stims October 13 2013 for IUI. Over-responded with too many follicles, so converted to IVF. Retrieval October 29th - got 5 eggs, 4 fertilized. Had 2 perfect little embryos transferred on day 3 (Nov. 1). The remaining 2 didn't survive to freeze. Got our BFN on November 13th 2013.
  • IVF#2 - Started stims August 21st. Triggered with Suprefact, started on dostinex due to risk of OHSS. Retrieval September 5th - got 27 eggs! 21 embryos on day 3. Embryos deteriorated quickly. ESet 5day blast on Sept 10. No embryos high enough quality to freeze. BFN came Sept. 22.

Reserved a semi-known proven donor in August .

Waiting for consult/screening and protocols with estimated fresh cycle timing in October

Re: For F*cks Sake - No results LIMBO

  • That is so, so shitty, and I'm sorry they did that to you. 

    I would keep taking the meds, personally, on the admittedly very small chance the blood work might show a different result than the HPT. I'm not trying to spew false hope here; I just think that might be best for your peace of mind.

    Again, I'm so, so sorry :(  *hugs*

  • I'm so sorry ((Hugs)) I have taken myself off meds after a BFN for most of my treatment cycles as RE does betas like 18dpo and I can't handle giving myself stuff for nothing.  Can you call the lab yourself and ask if they will release your results??  BIG ((Hugs))
