Team CD 80+

[chele]

oh i am in the exciting world of export contracts, and work for a company that makes railway fastenings!!!! It's mind blowing stuff.

So i have a question
I am cd10, given i ov'd last month cd100 when do you think I should start doing opks?

 

[drakey]

pmsl..... ermmmm

really dont know hun, i just done one now on cd140 odd and it was neg, suppose u could do 1 every day until u find ur pos? other than that i dont know hun lol.

ill be wishing this week away until my endo appt on the 15th! lol xxx fingers crossed they will be more helpful than the gyn! xx

 

[chele]

Am sure they will be. And if not kick some ass!!!!!

Can the endo prescribe anything to get you onto a new cycle? Not really sure what they do.........

Well I think I might watch my temps and await any twinges. After all it was the twinge the other week that made me do my opk

 

[drakey]

yeh that sounds a good idea, its a bitch having long cycles int it?

endocrinologists deal with the endocrine system, such as thyroid, puitary gland and all other glands in the body as well as the reproductive system... so im hoping they will be able to do some tests and as far as i know, they can treat it... will have to wait and see though. xx

 

[chele]

maybe I'll add that to my questions for the dr on tuesday, see if I can get that kind of referral.

 

[drakey]

yeh, suppose they would be no harm in asking about it, my doc didnt even tell me he was reffering me to one lol, i just got the letter through and panicked lol. good job he did refer me there to be honest as i would be stuck in limbo now wouldnt i, coz the gyno didnt wanna help x

Hello ladies! I haven't been able to post much lately. How are you all doing?
Drakey sorry to read about you not getting any where with you 1st appointment, lets hope your next appointment they will know you mean business and want something to be done!!
So af is still not here for me and my crossed hairs have moved down??? so i'm starting to question FF.
Although the past few days i've had sharp shooting pains in my boobs and lots of CM yesterday and today i've completely lost my appetite, all ive had i a bit of toast and a few mouthfuls of pasta which is not like me at all. So i'm wondering if i am on the run up to O instead??
When i went to the loo this morning i has the smallest amount of spotting, but still no AF, i want to buy some hpt's but think by the time i get round to it af will arrive anyway
Very confusing.

mlyn26, 193 days- thats one spectacularly long cycle! pleased the witch has arrived for you!

Vickik welcome

Reading these posts about AC- it does sound like it is working for you. Chele- you can always tell them at your test that you've been taking it and see what they say.

I went out on Saturday night for a meal at a Japanese restaurant in Sheffield, most of yesterday and so far this morning I feel rather sick....... don't know wether it was something I ate or possibly morning sickness (all day)

did you go to Wasabisabi on london road?!?! I live fairly near to there, you could have popped in for a coffee.

Heidi - good luck, it does look like AF is about to pounce with your drop in temp, but fingers crossed it goes up again tomorrow.

I think the foo foo temping is going well, and my temps are fairly stable, and also a bit higher so I am happier as I think maybe now my thyroid is ok - results will be back soon anyway.

 

[rabbit]

Chele- Yep, thats where I was, I love it there. When do you get your results back exactly?

The sickness hasn't eased off, but strangely enough eating mostly helps it!

 

[Heidi]

yup i think af is on its way but woo hoo for a short cycle!!!

 

[Heidi]

Ok so got me yesterday evening so luckily i'm working a late shift today so i've just been for my cd one blood tests but i'm actually cd two does this matter so much? it's still within 24 hours of arriving.
I'm still in disbelief that i've just had what some would call a 'normal' length cycle of 33 days!

 

[chele]

Heidi- cool a short cycle. Sorry it wasn't a bfp, but now you have another new cycle to work on. I actually had my cd1 on cd3.5 so no cd2 is fine

Rabbit - where do you live?
Well I have my dr appointment tonight and will see then if she had my cd3.5 bloods back. I want her to put me on metformin. I've been feeling really tired this last 2 weeks, as I have been eating a lot of carbs, especially at dinner. It suddenly clicked yesterday that it's the carbs and my insulin levels due to my PCOS. So I wanted Metformin anyway but this time I DEF want Metformin as something is not right with me. I'll ask if I can get my levels checked in my next cd21 blood - not sure if they were doing it already.

Will also ask her about testosterone. Got so many questions to ask her!!
Wish me luck

[rabbit]

Good luck Chele! Let us know how you get on.

I live near Alfreton (m1 j28)

Heidi- Yay for the 'normal cycle', Shame it wasn't a BFP though x x

 

[chele]

Rabbit - Ah wow so close to me then!!

Well I went to the dr. Apparently the reason why she couldn't just refer me is that my PCT works in that I have to have bloods done and husband has to do an SA. So he will change to my doctors shortly and then be referred to Jessops for his SA. Once the results are in (I will have had my cd21 and 28 by then), then we can be referred. So we're still looking at late summer before I even get an appointment. Grr. Oh well all steps in the right direction I hope

So I decided last night to stop taking the AC just in case my bloods are ok this month, I have ovualted at a normal time and they don't refer us as my cd 21 are ok. I'll then start back on the AC after my cd28 if I haven't ovulated - yeah right.

Why in the back of my head am I so worried about my DH SA? I know I said last week he thinks he has a varicocele,so in many ways I am glad he has to have the SA done at this early stage of the process.At least we can rule that out or deal with the problems.
He looked very nervous when I told him - I know he's going to be one of those men that if there was a problem, he'd be mortally gutted.

She wouldn't give me Metformin. I asked why and she said it was her personal choice. I don't think she knows much about it's use for PCOS and said that she'd prefer for the FS to give it me with Clomid. But she said she'll look more into it for next time. Grr I was really hoping for that as well

Testosterone was ok, all bloods seemed fine and I am not going through the menopause. woop woop

Hope we're all ok? x

 

[drakey]
