Well, gals, I am still very much alive! I’m sorry I have not been posting here but life goes on.  The details did not seem very exciting and I was busy working on some goals that blogging fell into the wayside.

Anyhow, after the one-day work-up in CCRM end of last year, we basically followed through with the necessary things to be done:
1. Physical exam and Mammogram - all clear
2. Clomid Test - I did it anyway so that I don’t need to redo it, just in case. All good.
3. Waited for my period to arrive to start the birth control pills
3. Paid for the IVF/ICSI/CGH - $$$ (I asked about “recession pricing or payment plan”.  They have none.)
4. Started the Lupron/Dexamethasone/Menopur/Follistim protocol - 1st ultrasound today show both ovaries responding as expected - 8-10 eggs @~10mm on the left and 10-12 eggs @~10m on the right.

I still owe you stories about the 1 day work-up. I’ll try to recall that but if not, then I’ll just tell you stories about what’s going on now!
