Guest guest Posted February 9, 2001 Report Share Posted February 9, 2001 Pam, Haven't gotten blood results yet, but had another question.... - when did you start feeling anything in the ovary areas? I'm starting to have some twinges on the left (side with measurable follies). maria Re: Update > > > I wouldn't worry about anything yet. Its still very early.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2001 Report Share Posted February 12, 2001 Hi Pam, Sorry it took me forever to get back to you, just got in. The nurse left a message, my blood levels were: Estrodial 410 Progesterone 1 LH 3 They didn't leave the FH level. Luckily I don't have to go back till Wednesday morning for another bloodwork and u/s (I really need to sleep past 5am!) How did your appointment go today? I'm still working on messages from earlier today so I haven't seen results yet - 140 to go). maria Re: Update > maria > > I am glad everything is looking good.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Thanks R, The follies were bigger today. I'm starting to feel kind of uncomfortable, I bothers me mostly when I try to sleep, I just can't seem to get comfortable. maria Re: Re: Update > , > those #'s look good.... lot of prayers and :::::::::::::::::::::: baby dust > for you girl > > lisa r > T.T.F.N. > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Hi a, As far as I know, they're planning on retrieving from both ovaries (it's a really good question, I'll make sure to ask tomorrow). Surprisingly I didn't do a thing to increase the lining. I'm shocked because it was a major issue for me. I was starting to get a little freaked! I'm just thinking of it as a beautiful gift from God and being so happy! It's amazing how much you can learn by paying attention to someone else's experiences. I received such an education talking to Pam! I thought I knew so much (I read every book), but there's just so much. And reading vs. actual experience is a very different thing. If you have any questions, please ask. I'm sure Pam would be very willing to answer questions also (she really is much more knowledgeable on IVF). maria Re: Update > - > > Those are great numbers.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Thanks Elle, I'm curious to see what happens with the small follies.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2001 Report Share Posted February 15, 2001 Hi Amy R., I tried a little experiment and compared yesterday's follies to today's. Average increase 1.6; 3 additional. maria Re: Update > I thought I remembered saying something like that...too bad > she's on a little hiatus right now or she could probably clear things > up for us.
