Baseline with Braveheart

in Infertility Veterans

I went in this morning for my CD3 b/w and u/s. I was sitting in the waiting room waiting to go in for my b/w when who walks in? Braveheart! I kid you not! This huge guy walked in with his wife...he had to be 6'2"...really broad shoulders...he had shoulder length hair, and he was wearing a kilt...with all the garb that goes with it (minus the sword). I told my RE when I saw him for my u/s and he just laughed and said he knew exactly who I was talking about. He said he ALWAYS dresses that way. That made my morning...

My AFC was 23 and my RE said I should be good to go to start my stims tonight so now I'm just waiting on my b/w results and a call with my instructions. We're doing Follistim this time instead of Bravelle to see if that makes any difference.

    I know, right? I was wondering if the Ren fair was in town but my RE said he wears a kilt ALL THE TIME! Now, what would really be funny is if he's not even Scottish or Irish and he still dresses that way.
