Weather Forecast, Sunny with a Chance of Rain

Well, the cyst is STILL growing and I am on "pelvic rest" because of it. In spite of that cyst, my ovaries are still hard at work...well, my right one is anyway...ol' lefty seems to be slacking a bit. Righty has the cyst and the most follis, with 3 definate and several with the potential to mature in time. While lefty, on the other hand only has 2 and we didn't see any additional potentials on the the ultra sound. No sweat, if I can get maybe two more to mature in addition to the 3 already on the right, I will be satisfied. Now, these numbers are quite low for your typical lady, but since I already have high FSH, it is pretty good to have this number :) I was pretty stressed that I would go in and have them say, OUCH, not today, go ahead and stop meds...I am quite happy to be proceeding :) We added the Ganerelix (SP??) last night. That med is to make sure I DO NOT ovulate prematurely. My estrogen is rising and my progesterone is not, so all good news there. Of course, still a chance that we would not be able to retrieve, just depends on how high my estrogen gets, but hopefully it will keep climbing :D

My next appointment is Saturday morning in Birmingham for an u/s and bloodwork, just to monitor my progress. If everything pans out, I will be back in Montgomery for an appointment Monday-ish and then Wednesday-ish retrieve!

E2: 318
Progesterone: .4
Follis: 5

Y'all have been in our prayers for a couple years, but persistence pays of, right?
