Clomid buddies?

Star- I wish you so much good luck for tomorrow! I can't wait to hear how they've grown! what kind of shots are you doing?

I don't have pcos. The doc just said the clomid can cause false positives and to start opks a couple days after your last pill. But I just took an opk, although my urine was more diluted than I normally would take an opk. The opk was super negative so i think I'll be fine starting my
Official opks tomorrow with no false positives
 
Star- I have all my fingers crossed that tomorrow you get fantastic news! You deserve it!! And thank you, I hope this nodule thing is benign also...I wish it was May 11th tomorrow. I just feel sad. But God has his plans and this needs to get taken care of.

Angela do you go back for any other appointments or are you just waiting to test now?

Mrs. Green- hope you get that positive opk real soon! Good luck!
 
Star, all fingers crossed here that you get the best possible news tomorrow! I think you're absolutely right, the symptoms can't be for nothing. It's a very new, odd feeling so I don't think it's for nothing. I felt nothing on my 50mg dosage, and it was unresponsive, so if I'm feeling it that has to be good. Hope you're good to go tomorrow and the injections are instantly a thing of the past! <3 best wishes <3
 
thank you all for your support. will post as soon as I am able to tomorrow. not going to BD tonight bc I'm totally exhausted and so is DH. we did yesterday. hopefully I'll get good news tomorrow and then I'll be back to the BD. until tomorrow!
 
I'm still kinda here. I come and read every once and a while. I've been so very depressed since getting a low progesterone level back indicating that the clomid didn't work. Then the dr saying they wouldn't give me any more that I'd have to go to a specialist - which I was sure was not covered by insurance. (Also having to wait to get the appointment)
I just feel like sh$t ... then my family abandoning us on Easter. I just can't take it. so gutted
 
I'm CD3 today and taking my first clomid dose shortly. Eek!
 
Star e we get fertility treatment free on NHS including three free goes of IVF if Clomid doesn't work as both me and DH don't have any children and are LTTC and over 30 but once we have a child we're no longer entitled to free help therefore we will have to go private which costs alot of money xx also I hope everything goes well for you today praying you get good news I have absolutely everything crossed for you I really do xx

Lulu no I don't get any more tests now follicle tracking has confirmed O so it's just a waiting game now till test day xx

Cowgirl so sorry you feel really down how have your family let you down if you don't mind me asking xx sorry you can no longer do Clomid that socks have you found out if your insurance covers your treatment I hope it does FX for you I really hope things work out for you and you can get your second child xx

AFM 4DPO me and DH BD last night off The Dr advice just to be on the safe side she told us to BD tonight too but I don't see any point since my CM is dry now xx we did all we can and now it's just the waiting game I hate the TWW it's the worst part about the whole process xx
 
star_e: Last cycle I tracked my bbt, cervical mucus, opks and took Tussin. I plan to do the same thing this cycle because it obviously worked lol! My progesterone level was at 22 on cd21 which was very good so I'm hoping that we can get the same this time around with a sticky baby!

Vankiwi: We are literally on the same day! I'm taking my second pill today. When is AF due for you? I'm due on the 26th.
 
Star e any news hope your okay xx

Goodluck Vankiwi and Brich FX for you xx
 
Star- thinking of you this morning!

Afm- lots of twinges on both sides so hoping I'm getting close to a positive opk. Only cd 10 so I won't expect it for a few more days.
 
I've been wanting to log on for so long. but only have a few minutes to update you. I over stimulated. too many grew. I'm terribly uncomfortable. the mucus literally hangs down in a stream. sorry tmi. the cycle is pretty much canceled. will give you more details when I get home tonight and have time.
 
Oh star huge hugs!!! I'm so sorry it got canceled! I will log on after work to see the update! I really hope they work something out for next cycle!
 
it might still be a while until I update you. Today's been a crazy day and the only think I can think of is how I want to update you. will have to wait till later haven't had a moment to myself. feelings wise im sad and irritated.
 
so last night was so uncomfortable bc of all of the symptoms! todau I saw a different doc today bc mine was out and when he did the ultrasound he immediately said oh you are responding now. you went from rags to riches. apparently i have one at 15 and like two or three at 13 and a bunch of 12s so he said in order to mature we would finish up the injections over weekend but only if we do IVF. bc we would then do egg retrieval and multiple follicles is good for that. he said that as of right now IUI would not be possible because too many of them would mature.

here is the thing. from the get go the docs at this clinic have pushed IVF. and when I sat down to talk to the doc about what our options were he pushed IVF very strongly. and he also said it will be unlikely that I'll have a chance to do iui bc I have pcos and I will overstimulate every time and we will have to cancel the cycles. then he assured me that IVF would work immediately. how does he know for sure that either of those statements are true?

first off I have dome tons of research on this and it is possible to get the dose right. of course I'm open to being wrong. maybe I'm wrong. but I could be right. yes it takes trial and error and it could take a while. but it is possible. we now know I respond to the medication. why can't we play around w the dose. part of the reaSom why it's difficult is bc w pcos the follies lie dormant for a while and then all of a sudden they all. wake up. but I have read about stories where people figure it out.

I just am really concerned bc I think these people are too concerned with doing IVF and that worries me. DH and I are not doing that. our insurance covers IUI and we told them that but they still pushed IVF and made IUI sound hopeless. I don't know I guess I just want to be at a place that is willing to try and put positive energy towards my goals.

I'm also very sad right now bc I have all these symptoms like the ewcm tender breasts bloated feeling pinches and pokes bc I have follicles that could develop and now the cycle is prob scrapped. he did say to come back on Monday to see if the follicle the biggest one has grown on its own but he said he does not think it will work bc we aren't supposed to start and stop the meds. so he says he has low hopes.

I know his cycle is toast. I'm sad about this but also worried about all the other stuff.

I'm still not home yet and I just want to crash. I'm so overwhelmed.
 
cowgirl. really sorry to hear your news about clomid. what about trying femera?

Angela any updates?

I'm so restless right now. it's so sad that I have follies that could grow. and now it's basically scrapped. it's just so frustrating. I'm sad and had secretly cry in the bathroom today bc I never had a moment to be alone. even now I'm still not at home and I just want to break down crying. I'm all emotional from the meds and so sad bc I don't know if in being paranoid but I just got the impression that they don't have faith in what I want to do. why couldn't they be more positive about trying to get the IUI to work?

wishing you the best of luck Angela! I hope you get your bfp! fx are tightly crossed for you. waiting is horrible. we are here for you!

ugggggggg I'm so restless. and in pain bc I'm so stimulated. I can't believe the news today. I'm in turmoil.

I want to thank all of you for being here! I am wishing everyone the best of luck!
 
Star e I'm so sorry to hear that I really am in a way it's good news as you know the injections work but in another it's awful as they've over stimulated you xx if you and your Dh are adamant to keep going with IUI then put your foot down with the Dr tell the IVF is simply not an option as you can't afford it and if they're not willing to try with IUI then you will have to go somewhere else xx

I really hope you get all this figured out soon I really do and that at the end of it all you will get your BFP, if you need to just chat or let off steam then we are all here to listen and offer support I pray you get good news soon and it all works out for you in the end xx

thanks so much for your support. i have another appointment on Monday and will state my preferences as clearly as i am able. i just need to be direct. i will do that and see what they say.

for now, i am praying that tomorrow i feel better. being overstimulated is awful.
 
BRich I'm not really sure what day AF is due as I'm not sure what clomid will do to my cycle! Normally would be around the 28th or 29th though.
