So I caved in today and tested at home. I was going to wait until tomorrow but with the symptoms I was having I needed to eliminate a factor. Yes the test was negative. I really didn't expect it to be positive since I know it's still early. I'll test again tomorrow.
Last night I had a lot of right side groin pain. It made walking rather difficult as the pain radiated down my right side to the knee. I had J get my cane for me so I could walk supported to the bathroom at least. I'm thinking that I have a cyst again. The E2 number didn't drop low enough and the cyst that was on the right side was only 2.5 from the 5 it was before but we all know I'm special. I also have a follicle cyst as of last week on the left side that was measuring a 3.
Symptoms:
I've now lost 3 pounds in two days
pelvic pain bilateral
pain radiating down right leg making walking difficult
sore breasts
hunger
oh and even though I've lost weight my jeans are tighter than ever in the lower pelvic region just above the pubic hair line.
This isn't looking good folks. If I get another cyst it's going to put using donor eggs back farther on the shelf than I had hoped. Sure a pregnancy would have or would be nice but I'm having my doubts about it being pregnancy symptoms. Monday can't get her quick enough. I think Friday I'll give the RE a call again and ask them to add E2 and P4 to the lab test. Something isn't good.
Today's mail was all mine. That is surprising to me since of late most of it has been J's. He received his glasses and college materials in the mail the past two weeks. Today I'm the winner though I'm not so sure that is a good thing. One of the pieces of mail I received was 9 x 13 inch 1/2 inch thick envelope from my hospital. Maybe its the records they finally got around to copying? I'll open it now to find out. Yup good guess. It did say Department of the Army Commander Madigan on it. I requested a few records, infertility ones, back in July...took a bit to get them huh? Now I have something to read today.
#######UPDATE######
From the doctor notes on 4 Sept with Major S. Got to love this one. I have two follicles on the left ovary and one on the right. She never told me I had more than one on the left. Largest one was the one recorded and told to me besides the one on the right. SO um, could I have ovulated two eggs? Well not like it matters much now.
Good luck, and I hope the pain goes away soon. I thought that cysts were relatively easy to sort? I remember having one during a scan and getting told that, if it didn't go away, they could drain it at the same time as a transfer.
ReplyDeleteI guess it all depends on the size of the cysts? I know mine has gone down to half it's size from last cycle but now I seem to have two others on the left. Tuesday night the pain was so bad I had trouble walking even with my cane. I just called the RE office and left them a message.
