Suppression check today (updated)

I go in this morning for my suppression check, and also for 1.5 hours of training on how to give myself shots. I have no idea what could be so complicated about it, but I guess I will find out! (DH is coming with me, which always helps calm the nerves.)
Ever since I failed the CCCT, I approach every RE appointment with extreme dread and anxiety. I have been googling "what could go wrong at ivf suppression check" and luckily I have not come across anything horrible - seems like the worst that could happen is that my cycle will be delayed. I didn't find anything that suggested this appointment could end with the RE telling me I will never ever get pregnant no matter what I try. (basically what happened after my failed CCCT - I have a new RE who disagrees:)
If all goes well I will start MD Lupron on Thursday and Stims on Saturday. Can't believe this may actually happen!
UPDATED to add: Of course I have a cyst on my ovary. My E2 was 20, though, so it is a nonfunctional cyst. I have to wait another week to start stims and hope it goes away. If not they will aspirate it. I'm OK with a slight reprieve, actually. Thank you for all the well-wishing!

I had a nonfunctional cyst this cycle. I was sure that it was going to put me out of the running but I actually had my best cycle yet. Good luck to you.
