Hi all,
Just a quick post to let you all know that I got my results today and yes I did ovulate this month and pray that we have caught the little eggie.Oh well I guess the waiting game begins again and I should know either way on Monday next weekas af is due then, same day I see my specialist.
I'm feeling so much better today! Thank you to you all, and particularly Michelle. Your email arrived this morning just before I left, and it helped so much to know that someone understands and can sympathise... it made me feel NORMAL!!! I will try to reply a bit quicker this time!
Work today was quite good - kids were a bit ratty, but it is the end of the year, and we did have storms in the middle of the day... One of my colleagues bought me some socks (with sheep!) to cheer me up, which worked more than she can imagine... on my blackest, darkest days I would always go sock shopping to cheer myself up, which is why I've got a drawer stuffed full to overflowing with socks, but very few of them are plain - all sorts of patterns and colours and weird things... I often end up buying outfits to match a particularly nice pair of socks! Yes, I'm strange! I then arrived home to find two packages in the mail... soaps from Liz and a book on PCOS that I ordered a while ago... I'll be off to read madly in a bit...
Oh, and lots of clear gooey CM today, so much I was conviced AF had arrived! So I'll be making sure to jump on my DH as soon as I can!
Debbie, in my experience the increased dose/s hasn't made the side effects worse at all. I had a few headaches my first cycle (25mg) and nothing at all since then (am now up to 100mg). I don't know about others, I know BW had pretty horrid hot flushes but she was on 50mg I think - BW?
Had a phone call from my FS this afternoon following an email I sent him (gotta love that service). He wants me to take clomid again this cycle (AF appeared this morning and has since gone all shy - grrrr) which I was a bit surprised about considering my lap is in 9 days. He thinks it best to keep everything consistent and regulated considering the improvement in my cycle this month (no spotting and 14 day lp).
He also said that obviously I won't fall prg before cd9 and there's no harm in me falling prg 5 days after the lap when i should ovulate!!! He said "actually that's probably a very good idea if you have your tubes flushed out etc, but you may not feel like trying"!!! You think?? I could barely get out of bed last time, let alone bd!! Maybe this time I'll be lucky and will have a recovery as quick as Debbie's and jump straight back on the band wagon LOL!
Mako, great news about your levels, hope you caught that eggie and it's getting nice and comfy in there!
**ETA: BW, so glad to hear you sounding so much better!

Yep, I was on 50mg, had headaches, insomnia and lovely hot flushes (not!)... and it didn't work!
I think I'll be doing a 100mg cycle once we hit the school holidays with monitoring done by my GP as an interim measure... I flat out REFUSE to have anything to do with my gynecologist again, and I doubt I'll get into a new FS too quickly at this time of year.
