I have requested another appointment to test for IF after someone posted that you should not have this done until 2 weeks have elapsed since last injection,. so going for a new test in two weeks. My doctor had given me an injection then a week later the nurse gave me another before doing the IF sample. My results were 2.2 on a scale of 0-18. I told the nurse last week and she said she didn't know that , so someone else has been educated here. She is a lovely person and totally on my side so she was glad I had given her this information
