    Thanks ladies for thinking of me.  Hugs to both of you!


    Joules, congratulations! I am so happy for you!  You have been through so much and it is so nice to know that some stories have a happy ending.


    As far as how I am... not very good, that?s why I?ve been in hiding.  I feel like this cycle is cursed.  Our donor misread her BCP instructions (long story, clinic?s fault IMO) which has resulted in our cycle being delayed.  Lucky me I get to be souped up on Lupron and estrogen for longer!  Then, my nurse at my home clinic is away and that seems to be a license for them to pretend I don?t exist.  My monitoring results from today are MIA and the clinic that I am cycling at is calling everyone known to man to find them.  Meanwhile I know my estrogen is off the chart and needs to be lowered (due to the cycle delay) because I am feeling like a nutcase.

    I'm sorry it's not going well! I hope they find your results soon and everything starts going more smoothly. Many prayers that your cycle isn't cursed and you get a pleasant surprise in the end. Gosh, when it rains it pours. ((hugs))
