I can't decide if I want to go get my bw tomorrow. I really don't want to. I just have a bad feeling that I am not negative yet. If I am negative then I should only have 3 more chemos. If I am not neg, that means AT LEAST 4 more. I am so tired of getting bw. I can't imagine having to do this for 2 years still. I have already been getting it done for almost 4 months now. So, should I just skip the hcg bw or go get it? I would actually still have to get some bw b/c they are supposed to check 4 different things tomorrow.

If they are checking other things it is best to go.. I would go regardless cause if you don't you are always gng to be thinking the what ifs..Hugs.. Hang in thre hun.

I also think you should go if you are having other things done as well. I know it's hard for you, I'm so sorry that it's taking so long. It can't be fun being poked every single week, I'm praying so hard for you that there is an end to this in the very near future. Hang in there Lisa.

I understand that emotionally it may be hard to look at, but if it were me I would wonder anyway. So I think you should go. Good luck and I hope you get negative!

[tobi4]

I say yes, It will play on your mind for the rest of the week if you don't. I wish you luck tomorrow. As always, thinking of and praying for you!

You should go and get your bloodwork done. I know how hard it's been on you and I know you don't want to know if it isn't down to zero yet, but Lisa...it's going to be whatever it is despite whether or not you get the bloodwork done, and it's better to know now because they won't stop the treatments until they know where you are at. Now, I know you already know all of this and you didn't need to hear it from me, but I worry about you. You've had a rough time of it ever since you lost your sweet baby, and it's been dragging on for months now. I want to see you be able to get those treatments done, and get on to ttc again! I pray for you often and think of you often. Hang in there Lisa...don't give up hope. It will happen...the end of all of this. You will be able to look back on this and be glad it's over and you will be able to look forward to new and wonderful things. Hang in there. There are so many of us that are praying for you. There are so many of us that think of you often...(just today for me in fact...was wondering how you were) and we are all pulling for you! Love you!

I know things have been really hard on you these past months, but you should continue to get your b/w done, especially if they are checking for other things. I hope the day is easy on you and your numbers are negative. Please KUP.

I'm dittoing the other gals. you should go and just know! it's best to deal with it when you know. i hope you are neg girl!!!!

[.:Shortcake:.]

I agree with the other ladies. Hugs! I'm praying your numbers are zero!

[Celena]

I'm not sure what to tell you, but that I would go.



I'm sorry for the length of this and the emotional, physical toll it's taking on you Lisa. Sure wish I could make everything better for you.

[LisaG825]

Thank you ladies for the support system. I don't even know what to think about all of this any more. I have looked at some of the older posts on another board I visit and I am one of the lucky ones that is taking the longest. They have a post on the site with everyone's hcg stats. I have only found a few ppl that have taken as long as mine has.

[dreamer10]

Am I reading right? Does that say 5.9? Yay! Lisa....you are almost there...your so close! I am happy to see that. I know you wanted it to say zero...but so so close! Hang in there hun...your almost done!

[LisaG825]

LOL Someone else said the same thing on another site. Yes, it is 5.9. If it had been 1 point lower I would have been negative. I am sure next week I will have an increase though so I really don't know what to think. Waiting to hear from the dr. about how many treatments I have left.

[dreamer10]

Let's hope and pray that it's you've gotten it far enough that it doesn't come back up again. I am anxious to see what next weeks numbers are. I hope they just continue to come down and next week your down to zero. How are you doing with the chemo? Hope your ok. Hang in there...

[Kary♥RN]

Just checking in on you Lisa.... Any news from the Dr?? Been thinking about you.. HUGS

[mmllhh]

Lisa, i'm glad to see that you are inching closer. Next week could be your negative. Keep positive. and keep us posted.

[LisaG825]

I got my schedule for chemo and they schedule 3 for June. I am still waiting to hear how many of those 3 treatments that I will actually need. Went in for chemo today and they added some more meds for nausea and some for the mouth sores. One of the side effects for the nausea medication is hair loss so I wonder if I will start losing more hair now. All I know is I am TIRED today. Hope this means this is the worst of it b/c I am usually not this tired until friday and Saturday. AF is not here yet. I plan on having the IUD taken out on June 2nd when I go back to the dr.

[tobi4]

Wow Lisa, I just saw the update! Almost negative, how wonderful. I know you are scared that the number will rise next week, Im praying it doesn't. I imagine you are afraid to hope with all the ups and downs, but its looking so promising, within your grasp now! Good luck, I cant wait to see what next week brings for you!!
