knowing your body

I don't know why I knew something was wrong.  But I did. So I pushed my primary to retest my thryoid priod to my upcoming IVF and just got the call this morning that my results were high again.  So they are adjusting my meds.  Thank God I did, or all this could have been for naught!!

    I can generally tell when my meds need to be adjusted b/c I tend to be in a fog & kind of lose my memory.

    Have you thought about going to an endocrinologist for it or do you not want to add another doc into the mix ( which was my main reason for waiting so long)?

    My endo. had my thyroid tested when I started BCPs and then again yesterday ( right before ER). As soon as I know I'm KU ( *fingers crossed*) I have to call them up ASAP. Apparently, 99% of pregnant women need their meds adjusted ~30% right away. Just something to think about when this IVF works for you Smile

    I had not thought about an endocrinologist at this point because my primary has been so awesome so far.  But I appreciate the heads up on having it retested and monitored when the IVF is a success and I love you for saying that it will be!!

    I'm confident we ( as well as a bunch of others) will be on PAIF real soon !

    I am glad you listened to your body instead of dismissing it as a side-effect.  It's even better that they can adjust your meds and you continue on!

    I go for my IVF seminar tomorrow.  Then have my RE appointment to get my protocol and should be a go for this coming cycle.  Most likely at the end of February for the actual IVF.

    Very exciting. Best of luck Heather!! It flys by. I remember thinking this was going to take forever and I am already 3 weeks into it.
