CP: goodluck: for Ultrasound tomorrow hope there is a nice number of follies there
WLAB: how is IUI going, just wondering at what stage you are?
Kel: Sorry to hear about your donor changing their mind. Hope you'll soon have success on AED
BDT: Cyclebuddy - has AF shown for you? I expect it later this week.
Buliej: hope you're having a relaxing break.

AFM Appointment with Dr Lok was a lot of food for thought. He basically thinks that my FS should have triggered earlier and that I lost the four follies which were around 20-22mm. He also suggested to use Pregnyl as the trigger. Then he suggested DP to do another sperm test and to do surgical sperm extraction if the result wasn't good - poor DP is afraid of needles and didn't find it at all reassuring that the needle used would be smaller than the one for EPU - must say that I wouldn't have needed to see the very graphic picture about the EPU either - very glad that I've so far always done this under anaesthetic
The really good thing was that he is not really concerned about high FSH as long as it's below 20!
Also he said the other option for us are donor eggs and he doesn't think it's a problem to find a donor.
In any case at this stage I think I prefer my own FS, asked Dr Lok to email her with his suggestions as I thought they all make sense to me.
CPie ; Gl for your scan tommorow, I hope you have just the right ingredients for your bfp
Sara; I am happy for you that Dr S, said FSH under 20 is good, and that you hava made a decision to stay with your current fs
Thanks for thinking of me, I felt completly dissapointed with my current FS, hence the change in procedure, then I had another change, and didn't bother to have the IUI with her either. It's a long story that I would rather not post on the threads, so I DTD naturally after the stims, so we will see what happens. Failing that, I have two new FS appointments schedueled, one tommorow morning, and one next week, depending on the outcome, I will go with either, and insist on the colorado, I have the exact same protocol as BullieJ, as we saw the same fs, for a second opintion, however, I have used the safety net to my advantage, and incuded an inital appointment, with two more FS's before I choose a FS, to give this year, our final shot, at ttc with IVF ...
WLAB: That sounds like a bad story with your FS it's all hard enough anyway so gettign disppointed by your FS is really not what you needs. Hope you are happy with one of the two FS you're meeting, it's a good Idea to see two as it gives you a number of different viewpoints and can find someone experienced with the issues you're facing.
CP: Hope your follies keep developing well and growing nicely - sounds like you're having a really good cylce. Looking forward to catching up on the weekend.
AFM - Already feeling some cramping so AF seems to be close - really hope she is not coming late on Saturday as I really don't want to go to a BT on Sunday as I have arranged to go up to he mountains with some friends for a 20km bushwalk - really looking forward to it. I'd go easy with the black tea as you don't want to get overstimulated.
I was talking to the nurse when picking up my meds earlier this week and she said it probably would be okay to come in Monday instead if that happens - has anyone done that before - just don't want to mess up my FSH reading.
