What a Happy Blogiversary April 19, 2005

I’m pissed. I have been waiting on pins and needles for these damn endometrial biopsy results so I’ll know whether or not this FET is going to happen. Yesterday marked the two week mark, so I really should have heard something.

I finally got antsy enough to call my RE’s office today. I talked to my IVF coordinator this afternoon and was told that neither of the biopsy results were back. She said she would double check with the nurse who handles the incoming lab results and call me if she found out anything. She said that if I didn’t hear back from her to assume that they hadn’t gotten the results.

Well, the phone never rang, so I decided to take things in my own hands and call the lab that does the beta 3 integrin test. I have no idea where the other biopsy sample was sent or I would have been on the phone with them, too. I was told by someone at the lab that my results had been faxed to my RE’s office on Friday. I was also told by the person at the lab that she had actually spoken to two people in my RE’s office today. UGH! I asked if I could get my results over the phone, but that wasn’t happening.

So, now I have to wait until tomorrow to call back my RE’s office to find out the results. Don’t they know how insane I’m going over all of this? This is my information, and I have a right to have it.

After I thought about it a bit, it seemed odd to me that the person at the lab would not only fax the report but also call my RE’s office a few days later. Why would they call? Just to make sure they had received the fax or because my result was abnormal? Plus, why would my IVF coordinator not call me back once she actually got the results? Was it because she was waiting to speak to my RE about them? Shit. I am so freaking paranoid.

At least I know that the result is in. Whether or not I can get my hands on it is another story. So, now I have to keep my fingers crossed that I won’t get bad news tomorrow and also hope that the other biopsy result comes back within the next couple of days.

But please, oh please let that beta 3 biopsy result be normal. Do you know what the treatment for the lack of the beta 3 integrin is? Three whole months of Depo Lupron treatment. Considering my history with Lupron, I don’t think I’d survive 3 months.

Ok, I’m just going to go chill out now. I will know in the morning. Hopefully.
