Well, we ended up canceling the cycle. :( It turns out that I was just not responding at all to the meds. When I went in for another ultrasound on Wednesday there was little change. My lining was a bit thicker again but my follicles were still holding out. So Dr. K drew some more blood to check my estrogen levels. I was told to up the Follistim to 225iu that evening in case we continue and when we got the blood work back on Thursday, we'd decide what to do. They were looking for my estrogen to have gone up to about 400 or more by then.
Thursday rolled around and my estrogen level had only gone up to like, 150. So we decided it's best to just cancel and try again next month. I stopped the Estradiol ahad to pick up a prescription of Provera to make me have my period. I'll take that for 10 days and then anywhere from a couple of days to two weeks after stopping that, my period should start. When that happens I'll call Michelle and let her know and we'll start round two. This time, though, the plan is to skip the Clomid and go straight to the injectables. I will also have a second ultrasound in Albuquerque AFTER starting the meds to insure that I'm responding to it properly this time before flying me out to Fort Worth. If it's looking good, then I'll head out for the IUI. Otherwise, I'll keep monitoring in Albuquerque until I do respond.
I am really hoping that it all works out this time around!!
