Had IVF cycle cancelled last week as didn't respond to Gonal F. I didn't have my 1st blood test until day 6 of stims and then on day 7 they finally decided to increase dose from 150 to 225. Should I be annoyed that clinic didn't monitor things earlier?
Still feeling pretty crap about it all and on top of everything I have a biopsy on Monday as routine mammogram found 2 breast lumps. Don't know which factor of my health to stress about first! Have to say that reading everyones posts really helps me to not feel so alone.
Think it is standard to leave you 6/7 days til first scan. Mine were only just getting to 8mm at that scan so think they need to give it that long to assess what response you are having. Have you had your follow up with the consultant? Ours were really good at going through what had happened and why and felt reassured by changes they would make for next time. Now they know you didn't respond to lower dose, I am sure they will up it for you. So frustrating though when you've been through all that process to get nowhere. So many hurdles to get through. Sorry to hear about your mammogram results as well. I know most of the time these lumps end up being nothing to worry about, but am sure you will worry until you know for certain. Hope you have some wonderful people looking after you. Best wishes xxx
