    Back to square one...cycle cancelled

    Hi ladies, like Wishes has just posted in her thread, sadly my cycle has also just been cancelled, due to no response to synarel..my hormones are just following a normal cycle, and despite an extra week on synarel (which worked for me last time) still no change. My nurse says it appears I havent yet ovulated, so DH and I will try naturally (if I ovulate, she said I might not, as the synarel had surpressed my LH levels), but we just feel so let down and disappointed...we thought after more than 5 weeks since I started the pill, that we were close to egg collection etc.. Plus I am nervous that if we do another cycle the same thing will happen (and my clinic seems to want to try the same thing again, as it worked the first time).

    I am posting separately here, as I am now sliding back down into the hole I have been in since the last miscarriage. I feel like I am drowning in this limbo and have no direction, I seem to just survive each day, each week. I go to work, and I exercise etc, but there is no real spark or happiness. I am reading self help books and trying hard to be positive and find joy in simple things and to reflect etc, but it certainly isn't easy. Some days I just want to hide from the world. I know that sounds dramatic I guess sometimes I just dont want to have to make any effort to be 'up' for people at work etc. I think I picked up when we started this cycle, as I had hope again, and I felt like I was at least doing something proactive towards achieving our goal... now that it has been cancelled, I feel so frustrated and disappointed and right back at square one. I am so grateful I have this site and you ladies to talk to and share this with, because I find people IRL have no real clue what it means ...

    Also, next week is when the baby from my second pregnancy would have been due. I can't help but wonder what that baby would have been like. I also have a sense of guilt that the babies have been lost all because of problems with my body (antiphospholipid syndrome and the ectopic/dodgy tubes). I know it was out of my control, but it stll gets to me.

    Thanks for the place to vent and be honest about how I feel in this 'me' thread. I know many here are in /or have been in the same boat.
