Welp, my body did it! It did not let me down this time. I barely slept Friday night because I was sure that my estrogen level would've dropped again and the cycle would've been cancelled. I almost didn't even go in for the blood draw I was feeling that negative. Dr. Nasseri called me at 10:30 Saturday morning. Usually phone calls = bad news. Not this time! The booster worked and my estrogen level shot back up. It was 3674 after trigger. Which by the way the trigger almost never happened. I was supposed to take my trigger at 11:15pm on Friday night. Well at about 10:55 I started icing the area and preparing the injection. Only to find out I cannot find the HCG. I was a basket case. I thought they never sent it to me. I had my empty jars from the past 2 cycles but neither had enough for a 5000iu trigger. I was able to pull out the order form and see that it was in fact delivered. But where was it??? My meds were shipped in styrofoam coolers. About 6 of them all together. I happened to save 2 of them because I thought they may come in handy as coolers one day. Well I ran down into the basement and started throwing all of the melted ice packs out. There at the bottom, shining like gold, was my box of HCG. Thank GOD!!! So we triggered a little late but at least we triggered! I thought for sure at that moment the cycle was a bust.
Anyways, yesterday at retrieval I had tylenol put into my IV. I don't know if it was that or what but I woke up feeling like a million bucks (almost)! Last time I was in a lot of pain and I was expecting it again.
Now I wait for the fert report...
Sweet! How many eggs did they get? My retrieval is tomorrow morning at 8:30 Pacific. My E2 yesterday wasn't horrible, but it wasn't that high, just 922. I haven't heard what it is today yet, but i it's over 1000, that will be the second time in 5 cycles. Woohoo!
