Bloodwork results ... :(

XV11StarXV11Star member
in TTC after 35

My RE's office does E2 and P4 testing blood work one week after xfer, and mine came back horrible.  I spent most of yesterday after the call crying and feeling helpless.  My E2 was 34, P4 was 16.  That is on PIO shots and Vivelle patches.  I have had a luteal phase defect as long as I've been tracking, so basically since I was 28.  I always have a "picture perfect" lining and get compliments from the Re, but then something happens and it feels to me like my numbers crash.  I am now on increased PIO plus prometrium suppositories, plus an extra Vivelle patch.  I keep saying I feel like we're trying to close the barn door after the horse got out. 

I plan to test tomorrow morning (10p3/5dt) and probably again on Friday morning which is my beta.  I have had tightness and crampyness in both ovaries/across my uterus, and very faint pink spotting once yesterday and very faint light brown spotting once today.  I feel like AF is banging down the door.  I realize it would be a miracle at this point, and I am so sad, even when I am trying to keep positive ... it seems pretty dim.  IF sucks.

    Thank you so much for the support.

    I woke up having to pee this morning around what I thought was 5 or 6am, so I POAS then.  It was negative (the CBE test that actually tells you in stark language "not pregnant"... ugh...).  I went back to bed and my husband and I talked for awhile, it was a pretty depressing conversation, and he pointed out it was actually only 2:30am.  Regardless, it was a negative, I am struggling to remain positive about this cycle... I had a really, really long day at work so I wasn't able to bump until I got home, sorry for the delay. 

    Here's hoping for a miracle on Friday!
