u/s today showed that my cysts were considerably smaller than they were in July. b/w showed estrogen level (forgot to ask the exact number) is low enough that they have given me the go ahead to start taking my Follistim tomorrow night. I will take it for 5 days then go back for my f/u b/w & u/s on Tuesday to see how I'm responding. If it's all good, we proceed with the IUI. If not, we cancel again.
The only down side was that my b/w showed my FSH level went up. In May it was 14.6. Today it was 15.6. In May they told me they like to see it below 12. Today she said below 13. Either way, it's elevated. Fortunately, my RE is still willing to try the IUI, but after reading the statistics, I'm a bit anxious.
Please pray or send juju or whatever you do that we at least have a shot this cycle!

Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive. Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)
