I got a call from my nurse on voicemail last night saying that they had my lab results from last week but were adding on some tests. So....I was a bit nervous wondering what they were adding on. But I promise I didn't google anything except what RPR was (one of the tests they ran) and it's a test for syphilis.

I called back and she said my TSH was low. So they are adding a FreeT4, which isn't back yet. Well, I had this run myself two weeks ago and the TSH was low and FT4 normal so I dunno why she said TSH was low, because she said it was normal before. Anyway. TSH was 0.126 before and now it is 0.186. Normal is 0.3 to 3.0. I'm just so relieved it's nothing urgent and nothing is wrong!

I asked the nurse about progesterone, she said yes, stop it at 12 weeks and it should be fine. No need to taper off. I'm still nervous about that but trusting my Dr's judgement and that of people on here who said 12 weeks is around the time they got off it too. And bonus! No more icky progesterone melting and leaking all over my panties in the morning.

I'm going to call my mom and go run some errands!

Fi, one of my thyroid tests is just a bit off. But so far they have said don't worry about it, it's just something they will monitor.

I may need another talking to when it gets time to stop the progesterone. But for now I am not letting myself think too much about it.
