HCG Levels Not Cooperating (warning loss mentioned)

PrivateOnePrivateOne member
in TTC after 35
Well my HCG levels are not cooperating. Anyone have this experience and have it turn out to not be a loss? We're preparing for the worst as the RE feels it is not a viable pregnancy, but he has also said anything can happen. At this point we have to wait and see.  No bleeding, but I'm on PIO shots still. Slight cramping and sore breasts. 

BETA #1 - 97
BETA #2 - 236 (two days later)
BETA #3  - 569 (six days later)
BETA #4 - 567 (1 day later)

Next beta will be on Tuesday. Praying it has jumped up and gotten back into a more normal range.  The low numbers don't bother me as much as the fact that they are not doing the doubling thing every few days.

Me: 44 - Hashimoto's (under control), DH: 38 - (minor issues)

IUIs: 2 in 2012 ... Both BFN
IVF #1: 10/16/13 ... BFP, however it was not viable and ended in an early loss at 7weeks.
IVF #2: Feb '14 ... Cancelled. Positive beta at baseline appt, became very early loss.
IVF #2: Apr '14 ... Retrieval Only. 2 embryos made it to day 3 freeze & will be batched with IVF #3 for PGD testing.
IVF #3: June '14 ... Retrieval Only. 4 embryos growing, all arrested before day 5. Two from April thawed, but also arrested.
Currently benched while determining how to proceed.

    Oh I'm so sorry you are in this limbo. I only had betas to track my loss to zero so I don't know much about them. Have they done a Sono to see if you have a gestational sac or more. Maybe seeing or not seeing something will help. I truly hope this works out for you.

    I asked my RE and he said It's too early to do an u/s to see if there is anything present. I've also ready that your hcg level has to be over the 1,000 to be able to see anything.  So I'm stuck with just waiting for more blood tests.

    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)
