I am so nervous! I feel like this is the last chance to have an easy time. If the Clomid didn't work- I will have to make the jump to an RE- which means long drives and tons more money. I am so hopeful- but at the same time- I just don't know if it will work. It is really scary to think that I am not as healthy as I once thought.
I am also kind of looking forward to asking about getting some acne medication. Not sure if Clindamacin (sp?) is safe for me to use- but I am gonna ask- this acne is KILLING me- I look like I have chicken pox!
I guess this will at least tell me what I need to know- good or bad!
No question here- just a vent.
Thanks!
Re: CD12 u/s in one hour!!!
Unfortunately- I had basically the same response this cycle. I have one 13mm follicle (1mm larger than last cycle) and a ton of smaller ones. I go back in on Friday to see if it is growing or just sitting there. Dr. talked to me about my options if it doesn't grow. I could go on BCP for 2 months, and hit it again with the Clomid one more time; perhaps take 200mg of Clomid (not our favorite option); take a break
; or head to the nearest RE. None of those options sound great.
I was thinking about taking those 2 months on BCP and getting on both clindimyicin, and phentermine for weight loss and hitting the gym hard. Before I got married I lost 20 pounds on phentermine, and another 12 after I stopped taking it. I unfortunately gained it all back 9 months later when I quit smoking. I also gained another 20 after quitting BCP. I am going to call my family practitioner to see if this is an option (My OB/GYN is fine with this- but wants me to go through them). I was also thinking about going up to 1500mg of metformin while I am at it.
I am devastated and trying to hold it together at work. I feel like this is it- and I should just suck it up and go to the RE- and will be calling them today to find out rates and waiting times. I am all OOP- so no matter what it is going to hurt.
Thanks for your support! I will update on Friday.
