Sizzles, nope, no results for me yet.
I called and left a message with the office manager, but I haven't gotten a callback and still no results. I am resigned to the possibility that I won't know until I meet with the FS again on Thursday. The only reason I can think of for this delay is that the FS wants to go over the results with me herself before I see them.
I guess it is somewhat of a mixed blessing that your thyroid results came back normal. Now there is a big question mark about what is causing your spotting and other symptoms. Are you going to be push to have that investigated further?
Sorry you're still waiting Cali. That really is bad!
As you say, although I'm pleased the results were good, it does still leave questions. I didn't think the thyroid was probably causing the spotting as I've been experiencing it for 18 months plus (before that I don't think I tracked it as much, although I'd be surprised if I hadn't noticed several days of spotting), and my thyroid was checked back in January. However, with the other symptoms, I had wondered whether it was 'unstable'. Still, the symptoms were worse towards the end of last cycle, so I thought (and acu agreed - it's a part of TCM!) maybe my body was just whacked at the end of that cycle; this cycle I've been fine!
I am having further investigations done. I may already have posted on here, but I spoke to the fertility nurse last week about the spotting and she has since spoken to the consultant. She called earlier this week and told me the consultant will see me in December to look at my cervix - lovely! So at least they're listening to me and taking me seriously. So any way, the appointment letter arrived today: Christmas Eve!!! Thanks for that! I think we're hosting Christmas, so I shall have to make sure people know not to come until mid afternoon as I'll be otherwise occupied having people peer up my whatsit!
Session 14???
Rather embarrassing today as I turned up for my 11.15 appointment, only to be told my appointment was at 10.30!!! Whoops! SOOO embarrassed! Any way, she agreed to still see me, though it was definitely rushed: no chat beforehand; straight down to business and the whole appointment only lasted 30 minutes. Ah well, I guess that makes up for the extra I got last time!
As it was all a bit of a blur, I didn't properly catch which points she used, so I might miss some. She did check my tongue andpulses before hand, but didn't comment.
1 in top of scalp
1 in forehead
2 in right wrist
1 in left wrist: hurt like hell! When she put it in I exclaimed, as the sensation shot down my hand into my thumb like an electric shock. Then when she removed the needle at the end, my wrist really hurt and was quite red. I didn't hold the steering wheel for the first couple of miles (with that hand!) as it was sore. Now I'm left with a large purple bruise on my inner wrist.
3 in tummy
1 behind each knee
1 around each ankle
1 on top of my foot (possibly both feet?)
I think I had a couple on my inner shins
So nothing really to report, except that she was working on 'invigorating' which she seems to do a lot! She was pleased my bloods were clear and that I'm seeing the consultant.
Now, the fertility nurse said on the phone that an appointment would be made for December. I'd previously been told to phone in December to get the ball rolling for IVF, but when I last spoke to her she said when I saw the consultant I should mention it and he would start it. However, my question is, since my appointment isn't until Christmas Eve, do you think I should phone early in December so the paperwork is started, or wait for the appointment, which will realistically mean paperwork won't be started until the new year? Obviously, although I don't
want IVF, I also don't want to wait any longer for a baby!
