AW: Sorry I've been MIA...it's been a rough week

in Trouble TTC
Hey guys,
I feel awful that I haven't been active on here the last few days. On Sunday, my grandma suffered a massive heart attack and was airlifted to the hospital, but we were told she would live. On Wednesday however, we got the call that she had passed away. She was 87 years old and I feel like she had a long life, but I have been very depressed for the past three days. On Friday, my sister got a DUI and I had to drive for two hours to pick her up from jail and get her impounded car. Aside from that, we had put an offer on a house and someone else pretty much snatched it out from under us around the time I was sure we had gotten it. that was last weekend. I've just had a really sad week and I miss my grandma a lot. 
Me: 25 Dh: 25 Married since July, 2011
Diagnosed with PCOS 2010
TTC since December, 2011 (SA is Normal)
2012-tried natural w/Metformin 1500 mg
11/12 -Saw an OB, bloodwork revealed everything normal except for highish blood sugar levels
1/13: Clomid 50 mg - No response
2/13: Clomid 100 mg O'd BFN
3/13: Clomid 100 MG O'd BFN
4/13-6/13: Clomid 150/200 mg O'd BFN 
Stopped treatment because of money issues and began to try naturally again from June-October 2013
Benched until November 2014 - Started seeing RE, discovered that lining was very thin
November 2014: Started Femera 5 mg -No response BFN >:(
December 2014: Upping Femera, injectables are the next step if I respond 
Also: Changed RE, first appointment on Friday, so treatment is subject to change this month

    Oh no, I am so, so sorry! No matter how long and full the life of your grandma, it must be so painful that she is gone from your daily life now. The feelings must be even more difficult with the disappointment of losing the bid on the house. Be kind to yourself...take time to grieve and remember her. (((HUGS)))

    So sorry for your loss. Life is so unfair sometimes....

    TTC since Jan 2013      Me=25   DH=26


     Me: PCOS; I do not ovulate on my own...like ever. All other tests came back good. 

    Hubby: SA came back in the normal range.


    Medicated Cycle #1: Letrozole 5mgs days 3-7, trigger when eggs are ready: total bust...u/s 12/23-lots of little follies. u/s 12/26 follies grew 1mm 1 in each ovary. u/s 12/28 no growth. OPKs for hopeful ovulation, if not progesterone on CD35 to induce next cycle w/5mg letrozole CD 3-7, add follistim CD 8. UPDATE: Positive OPK 1/1 and 1/2, very unexpected and unlikely that I'd ovulate this cycle! :)

    I'm so sorry for your loss, you and your family will be in my thoughts.

    I'm also sorry that you didn't get the hous. It's so disappointing to put so much time into that decision and then having to start over. I hope that your sister's dui will not continue to affect you. My brother just got his second dui, and I just can't understand it.
