The Long Update
Beta #5 277
Obviously we weren't making any progress. I didn't have to wait long to find out what was going to happen. At about 1am on Monday morning I woke to terrible cramps & bleeding. I sat up until 8am & then called the RE's office. They told me to come in for bloodwork & an ultrasound. Here is where I can show you how GREAT this office is. Not.
Stupid nurse:(she will be now known as SN) We are going to draw your blood & make sure it's not in your tube.
Me: um, kay.
I then proceed to wait for 1 1/2 hours for an ultrasound. Finally in the room stupid nurse is joined by stupid doctor or aka SD.
SD: We may not be able to see anything but we are going to check anyway.
Me: um, kay.
SD: (inserts wand monkey/immediately has confused look/looks at SN for another confused look)
SN: ( returns confused look)
SD: Is that her ovary?
SN: yeah
SD: (continues to shoot confused glances at SN)
SN: says to SD- should we wait for the bloodwork?
SD: Yeah. Says to me (yes they finally remembered I'm in the room)Well everything looks normal. Your ovaries have some cysts which is normal for IVF. We will wait for your bloodwork. I have seen ultrasounds with multiples that look like this.
Me: huh? What did you see?
SD: Well I can't really say until I see the bloodwork. That will give us the answers.
SD & SN exit room.
Me: um what just happened? I drove an hour here & waited 1.5 hours for this crap! My poor husband just looked at me.
Me: says to SN out in the hall. I just wish someone would tell me what is going on! I have known that none of this has been good & no one will tell me anything!
SN: We have seen wierder things turn out ok.
Me:(gives nurse look of death)
SN: I'll call you later with the bloodwork.
At 4:45pm I still hadn't heard from SN. I called and got the results myself. Beta #6 207. So of course it's over.
SN: I'm sorry to give you bad news.
Me: I knew it was over a week ago, but thanks anyway.click.
So I'm currently sitting here dreaming of percocet & waiting on my husband to bring me Nyquil. Yes with my super duper luck I have a terrible cold on top of all of this. The only good part about it is it's a great cover for work.
I have decided to switch RE's. I found a very small clinic here in town. They have agreed to take my frozen embryos & do my FET. I just can't deal with these people again. Waiting 9 hours for lab results is bullshit. They don't even talk to you. Every patient has a personal voice mail where they leave your results & you can call after 5pm to get them. They tell you 3:30. But after 16 voicemails it was never there before 5pm. They are too stupid & rude to get anymore of my mom's money!
