To be honest I feel like the whole last 2 and a half years have been a cruel trick, and this is just the cruelest trick of them all. I have not slept properly now for 2 nights, and have been at work too. Only slept for 4 hours last night. This is wearing me out now. I am exhausted.
I spoke to one of the Obstetric/gynae consultants on labour ward today (where I work) and she couldn't tell me anything that I didn't already know. She said my HCG levels should at least double in 48 hours, but to do the next test no less that 48 hours from the last. I may leave it til Sunday, just so I know for sure that enough time has passed for the doubling to happen.
I started getting period like cramps on the way into work, and was nearly in tears when I got there. Infact I had to go and hide in the loo and compose myself when someone asked me 'are you ok, you don't look your usual self'. Anyway, only more brown stuff today, no fresh so thats one good thing.
I am going to wait til tomorrow to call clinic, as thats my test day anyway. Then I will call them and ask for advice. They can't blame me really for sending off my levels given where I work and the ease of doing it!
Thank you all for listening to me drivel on about my brown stuff, my tests, and all my general moaning. I have to say, this is the hardest part of the whole process. Give me egg collection any day!!!!
