Check in for the week of August 28th
What's new? Updates?
Confirmed blighted ovum on Thursday. Sac was bigger but empty. Took Cytotec on Wednesday. Hoping it did its job because I don't want to deal anymore.
Just looked at my Quest Portal and my blood work (all 39 vials of it) that Kofinas sent me for all looks like its in the normal range or pretty close. No answers as usual. Waiting on some more immune tests.
Next Steps?
I'm really at a loss as to what to do next. I go back on Thursday to see if Cytotec worked.
How are you feeling?
Annoyed and sick of this roller coaster ride. Fat. Tired. Blah.
Questions or concerns?
uhhh

Re: Check in for the week of August 28th
What's new? Updates?
Beta yesterday after IUIs = negative. AF came today, with a VENGEANCE
Next Steps?
CD3 blood work on Thurs. Will try Clomid/IUI this month
How are you feeling?
Dreading monitoring appts/dropping DD at preschool/making it to work on time once we start back next week. I plan on telling my principal I am seeing a fertility Dr and hopefully she won't give me too much of an issue if I'm a little late some days.
Questions?
What is monitoring like on Clomid? Last month I only used Ovidrel and was monitored CDs 3, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, IUIs on 16 & 17. I think you start Clomid on CD 3 or 5 right? Is there more monitoring in that first week?
Good luck to everyone!

SO sorry about the BFN. I feel you on monitoring appointments. So stressful getting there and still making work. Sorry I don't even remember my Clomid days...those were in 2013. Hopefully someone else chimes in. I hope this cycle goes better for you.

Re: Check in for the week of August 28th
What's new? Updates?
Went to Kofinas for my bloodwork results. Everything came back normal except...PAI-1/4g and ACE Insertion/Deletion. Currently researching these two..but Kofinas told me they kind of go hand in hand with MTHFR. I'm on CD9.
Next Steps? He put me on metformin and currently waiting for the side effects, lol. I go back CD21 to check if I have ovulated or not.
How are you feeling?
I am feeling okay. I was told I will have to be on lovenox shots, which I kind of knew from the get go.
Questions or concerns?
Just trying to take it all in.

Good luck with the metformin! All I have to say is that it does get better so hang in there! It took about a solid 2 weeks for my body to get used to it.

Lots of nausea, a few days of stomach cramps and diarrhea and I threw up twice. Try to limit your carb intake when you first start taking it.
