Bloodwork Results(sort of)...FINALLY!(UPDATE Post 1)

pepper73 · #1 September 1st, 2011, 04:03 PM

I finally got a call from my doctor's office with my bloodwork results. Unfortunately, I was out on my BF's lobster boat, fishing all day, so I missed the call. They left a message but it was fairly vague. They didn't give me any numbers but said that things look good and that they think my body will respond well to the Clomid. Everything else points to good ovulations. So, even though they didn't give me the numbers that the OCD part of me needs to have, at least things are looking good. I'm going to call them tomorrow to try and get more details and specific levels. Since my bloodwork seems to be coming out fine, the next step is to get my BF's swimmers checked if I don't get a BFP this cycle.

**UPDATE**
I called my doctor's office and spoke with the nurse. My numbers are really good! My Estradiol is 36.8 and my FSH is 6.5!!! I was so happy to hear the FSH results. Those were the ones I was the most worried about. I also got my progesterone number from when I went in on CD 25 and that was 18 so I'm happy with that. The nurse was really cute talking to me about my numbers. I was so excited and she was really positive and said "it's going to happen!" After seeing these numbers, it definitely does give me hope.

Isn't that so frustrating? They obviously don't realize how much time we spend online researching the ideal numbers and that we'd actually really like to know specifics!

Me too! It's so much easier for me to just take on these tests on my own. Dragging him into it makes it more of a battle. He wasn't too enthusiastic when I told him about the message from the doctor. I have a feeling he probably got the idea in his head that if everything's fine with me, it might be something with him. The last thing I want is for him to feel inadequate.

So glad your results look promising. I'm praying that you get your BFP and BF doesn't have to do any testing. And yes I would call them back for specifics. My nurse never gives me specifics so I have to tell her that I neeed to know the numbers. I think we all have a big of OCD!!

It took DH 3 years to finally do his SA

And I finally put my foot down and said that it was either him doing the SA or I was done trying and putting my body through H*ll.

I always drive my doctors nuts with asking for numbers! It is the one thing I was so OCD about - I can't tell you the times where I ended up knowing more than they did about the exact results!

Side note: Have you started writing out the script for your reality tv show?

I know what you mean about the numbers, I have my numbers from this cycle written in 10 different places cause I am completely obsessed...

ANyway...
Hooray for great numbers and hope that your BFs numbers come back great aslO!

LOL!!! Well, yes I have actually! My best friend and I watch all of those Real Housewives shows and we think that they should do one about us. Instead of champagne, it would be Bud Light...instead of designer gowns, it would be sweatpants. We live in a land of very interesting characters and lots of small town drama. It could be very funny!
