I got the call from my NP’s office this morning - my estradiol level was pretty low (103 - it needed to be closer to 300). Womp womp.
Another e2 test was ordered for today. This time I was able to have it done at my local clinic, so B didn’t have to take more time off to take me to yet another appointment. I’m so glad it worked out that way - I feel really bad when he misses work for me.
Anyway, the nurse at the clinic had to take the blood from the same side as it was taken on Saturday (lefty) because the vein on my right side wasn’t cooperating. I already had a lovely looking bruise in the crease of my elbow - it’s going to be even more glorious later tonight.
I’m not feeling as optimistic about this cycle as I was on Saturday. I have a feeling that the results of this blood test will come back lower than it was before. Maybe the next cycle will be more successful - it has to be, right?! (I know the answer is no, it doesn’t have to be … but I’m trying not to think negative thoughts) This process is really taking a toll on me lately - I need it to be over soon, but I’m not willing to give up.
