So I called my REs office and asked for him to call me to discuss the results of my MRI... Because of it clear i need to start my FET protocol and guess what??? My RE is on vacation until FRIDAY!! How am I supposed to start my protocol if he isn't even here? Soooooo frustrating......
ETA: now I'm just mad. The nurse just called and tol me that the lab closes for three weeks in December so they can't do any transfers after December 20th! Then the soonest they can do a transfer for me is on January 7th....!!!! WTH? And there is nothing I can do about it since the doc is out of town and they won't let me start the estrace without my baseline scan and blood work. Ugh!!! I just wanna throw something! His "oh this will only set you back a week" turned into an additional 3 weeks! So mad and sad

I just wish my RE would have said something... I don't know last week about this... I could have started my estrace and stuff while I waited on the MRI results... He knew he was going to be on vacation.... The nurse even remembered that I was going to be on vacation in December... How did they not think to mention this? ::banging head against wall:: communication would have put my heart at ease.... Guess I just have to get over it...

I'm slowly learning that I just need to relinquish control.. Maybe this is a lesson in patience for me... And I needed to be reminded that I can't have everything I want my way all the time... Maybe this will make me appreciate my potential children even more.... I guess I need to look at the big picture and stop worrying about every set back...
