CD2
Busy Day of Busy Work

Got up at the crack of dawn to see Dr. Indian in the Big Apple. Two trains to get there and about a mile of walking. The place was pretty empty, luckily. They took my blood and put me into an exam room. Two of the docs that did my retrieval came in to do the U/S. I told them that I was having pain on the left side and suspected a cyst. They checked, and as I suspected from the nagging pain on my left side, I've got a good sized cyst on my good (left) ovary about 17.8mm large. Endometrioma on the right side.

Fuck.

Canceled again.

Just when I THOUGHT that I had things all planned out.

I decided to spend some time in the city and just wander and think. I treated myself to breakfast at Penelope over in Murray Hill and then spent some time browsing Kalyustan's (the mother of all spice shops) before heading home. My head must have been in the clouds over the U/S findings because I wound up taking the train to Hoboken rather than Jersey City. It was only a delay of 10 minutes or so, but I haven't done that in a long time.

Back at home, I quickly got on the phone and made a bunch of calls.

I followed up with my reproductive immunologist to see which drugs I should continue and which ones I should cease and to beg them to prescribe some hGH for my next cycle. I called the pharmacy and ordered 2 months of lovenox, to arrive on Wednesday. I made an appointment with the current RE to discuss what happened. I called the Persian doc in Palo Alto to see if there were any cancellations this week. (There weren't but my December 2nd surgery might get moved up to November 23rd). And lastly, I fired off an email to Dr. Italian in NYC to see if he would simply drain my cyst and let me cycle.

He replied right away.

YES.

He instructed me to get myself on BCPs ASAP and to call his office in the AM to schedule the procedure.

Thank you universe.

Finally something is going to happen that includes my trying again as soon as possible. I envision that this means my surgery with Dr. Persian will get postponed or, better yet, canceled due to pregnancy. Fingers crossed.

And...while I was out...Dr. Las Vegas telephoned me to tell me her hGH protocol and tell me that she's working on getting a letter to Dr. Persian.

Things are falling into place.

I hope.

Woo hoo! I'm so happy you can continue with this cycle. It sucks when we have to cancel a cycle and postpone all of our glorious 'baby-making' plans. Best of luck to you.

Wow. You inspire me. It sounds like you have a whole army working on this with you - you're my hero! I have everything crossed for you this cycle!!!
