Once again...nevermind

Don't you love when you make plans and they get canceled?  I know I do!  There's nothing I find more exciting than sitting around waiting.  Really, it's lots of fun.

Yeah, so there's a 4 cm cyst left over on my right ovary.  So, this cycle is canceled.  While a small part of me is relieved to not have to schedule appointments during the last month of classes, the rest of me is incredibly disappointed.  I hate sitting out cycles. It feels so useless.

I'm holding onto the tiniest bit of hope that the LAST time I had to sit out a cycle that I thought I would be able to do (not for cysts but for schedule problems) I got pregnant with just OPKs and temping.  And, it was exactly one year ago.  So, we'll try on our own "just in case."  I guess it is possible.

Otherwise, Dr. Smiles thinks things went pretty well although he thought my E2 level was low and he could have pushed me another day.  So, next time, we'll probably either have a higher dose or slightly longer, I think. 

Ah, well. 

(Thanks, again, to all of you for your comments on my BFN post.  Y'all are awesome.)

  7. Crap!!! Well I guess there's one thing I have learned while on this journey...sometimes you just gotta "trust" how things go. It's hard to once again feel like things are out of your control.

    Hang in there. Thinking of you

  12. Oh no... so sorry that you have to cancel this cycle. I almost had a cyst cancel my last cycle and would have been so disappointed. Hope this break allows you the time to rest and rejuvenate for the next cycle to be all the more successful xoxo

  13. Evil cyst! I hate them! So sorry this is disrupting your schedule. It never seems to go as planned, does it? Just another super-frustrating thing about infertility treatments. All the best of luck for succeeding the 'old-fashioned' way this month! You never know!
