Hello all, figured I would give a little update!
So I had some baseline (CD3) testing done. I got to see my TAC which was AWESOME
So
that is my TAC, the roundish thing with the hole in the middle is my
cervix, like a big donut. and the white smile shaped band just above my
thumb is the bottom of the TAC! It was really cool, you could even see
the knots in the mersaline tape they used.
It turns out I also have a 5cm cyst filling my left ovary. The US tech said "woah that is big, that could be a major set back". So that was less than awesome, but then my RE called. They said the cyst is all fluid and it should resolve itself when I start BCPs for this IVF cycle. It turns out they are going to be moving my IVF AHEAD!!! My suppression check will be June 10th. So instead of starting my stims June 21st I will be starting them June 11th or 12th!! It's not a lot of movement but it is some, and I'll take it. Same protocol as last time, antagonist, and hopefully it will be about 14 days after start of stims to ER date.
So needless to say I am pretty excited about the positive outcome, and hopefully, since we know the formula we need, our first attempt (this round) will be a success.
