    BZ - congrats on the weight loss, that is a real achievement and hopefully given all your hard work fs will give you clomid.
  • Well, we may be pregnant but as a test this morning was negative they think its very unlikely.

    The doc was brilliant, just sat and listened to me. He has given me low dose antibiotics as it may be a water infection as I am weeing more frequently. Past few days. Oh and my temp was 38 my pulse was 140 bpm and my blood pressure was 160 over 90! Eek!

    But its definitely not an eptopic or a ruptured cyst. So im feeling a lot better now. :-)
  • Thanks to all for listening. :-)

    Just a quick log on to say that nothing is happening for me at the moment, I tried soy - my period hasn't come, but tests are showing negative.

    Need to find a new donor and just generally feeling very negative about it all.

    I hope you ladies are much perkier than I am! xx

    How are you feeling about the idea of IUI/ICSI etc now, 2b?

    DB, I'm glad you're more reassured now :)

    QQ - good luck for today.

    BZ - hope bleeding stops soon.

    2b - hugs, sorry you are feeling negative and hope you can find a donor soon.

    DB - glad you got some reassurance from doctors.

    AFM - got blood tests on thurs for HIV and hepatitis and DH has his blood tests tomorrow, hope he will be ok as he never had blood taken before. Going to phone clinic today to make appointment for consultation which is where we sign all the consent forms and decide on when to start first ivf. In the meantime I am due to ov today so been getting plenty of bding in as always small hope of a BFP before ivf starts
  • I have been such an idiot.


    I know what it is now, my IBS playing up!

    I can't believe I wasted the docs time yesterday and you guys! Do'h!

    I have been taking the antibiotics but the pain hasn't subsided whatsoever, I realised that when I ate I was in more pain straight after. I typed into google ''IBS pain and period pain'' and low and behold that's what it is.

    The pain is higher today and in my right side, so not period pain after all. I went to the chemist this morning and the chemist very much agreed with me and now I have some mebeverine hydrochloride tabs which will help a lot apparently.

    I can't believe I was so stupid! They totally felt like period pain though!

    Ive had IBS for a few years and Ive never had pain like this so that's why I never questioned it, the doc last night mentioned my IBS a few times...

    sorry ladies :o
