I had another scan today. E2 (estradiol) still at 32. Follicles all still the exact same size as on CD11. CD13 right now. I don't have a lot of experience with this, so have no idea if this is really bad news or not. I know that it sure as hell doesn't feel so good. I'm also feeling defeated at work. Possible depression cycle in the works? God I love going through the stages of grief over and over and over again...

Hi Barb,
Sorry you're having a rough time right now, I'm sure this holiday has not been the best for you.
I know how that whole cycle of depression goes...BTW, I think you're being way too hard on yourself regarding the "happy thanksgiving" offered to others, what's the harm?
I'm surprised they didn't give you any info. about your follys and E2. Hopefully there is still some room for improvement if they didn't say otherwise.
Good luck, I'll be looking for updates!
Hang in there - I know what you mean by repeating greif over and over in a cyclical formation. Are you just doing clomid right now? what dosage? ( yes i'm being nosey - sorry) I will saya prayer for those follies ..GROW follies GROW now!!!
Stephanie - Thanks chick. Yeah. I have no idea if it's good or bad. I get the feeling from them that they're not sure yet either, so maybe that's why. Who knows. As for the apologies, I was slightly poking fun at myself. I'm not really too concerned about it. I just realized it after and thought it was dumb. ;-) Thanks for sticking up for me though.
Fertilize Me - Thanks! :D I already did Femara CD3-7 (lowest dose). And it's not nosey since I say it on the blog too, so no worries. :)
I'm so sorry about these estradiol results. I have no idea if that's good or bad because it's measured differently in Canada so I don't know how to compare.
I hope they go up and up and up! Keep us posted
I wish I knew what those results really meant. I'm sorry they've got you worried.
I truly believe your time is coming. Everyone has to catch their break eventually, right.
Thinking of you Barb and sending only positive, fertile energy across the seas.
Thanks Hilary. :)
Thanks Chips. You're a doll.
What I'm going to say isn't going to help much. Your stalled cycle could be really bad or not. I am usually a late O'er but ovulation drugs made it MUCH sooner (possibly b/c of my high LH?) That said, I know that a significant number of ladies didn't/don't/haven't O'd until the late teens on Femara. So really, it could be either. Try to keep your chin up for now. I know it is hard.
Thanks Yoda. I'll try. I'm not giving up until I'm around CD20. At that point, I'm heading for a scan and scratching off this cycle as lost. On to injects I suppose after that.
