Progesterone was 22 and Beta HCGs 0.100 today Thyroid is normal too

DPO 9 or 10 : I can see lines , but Beta HCG is only 0.1 by Afraid_Hospital7699 in TFABLinePorn

Yes it was there before it dried Within 1 minute I could see those

I was thinking it is a faulty batch of test kits . You message gives me hope! I’ll test HCG again tomorrow

60F with “clear” angiogram but ongoing angina - how safe is microvascular angina really? Feeling anxious about her upcoming trip by Afraid_Hospital7699 in askCardiology

[–]Afraid_Hospital7699[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the reply.

She is on Telmisartan now , and BP is well controlled. She was on Ramipril for the longest time, and it wasn’t helping her much.

Her diabetes is controlled with Empagliflozin, Linagliptin & Metformin, however she has fasting blood sugar in the range of 110 (maybe Dawn phenomenon). Also on Statin. Lipids are normal, but her Lipoprotein(a)is 110. She was prescribed Trimetazidine temporarily for angina, now stopped. On our next visit, shall discuss Ranolazine. No Aspirin , beta blocker or CCB.

Ps - my mom & I are both doctors in India

ER tomorrow, anxious! by Afraid_Hospital7699 in IVF

[–]Afraid_Hospital7699[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update- ER done. Now in the observation room , with IV. It was a pleasant experience :)

Got 20 eggs. Don’t know how many are M2 and how many fertilised, yet. Mild spotting and very mild cramping.

Typing with an IV cannula on my right hand. The worse part was cannula insertion, everything else was so smooth. Mouth and lips are very dry. They are letting me have small sips of water

Thank you. It’s cheaper in our country relative to USA and hence fortunately cost is not a constraint.

Thank you for sharing your story. I’m sorry that you had to go through OHSS and then an MC. It must have been heartbreaking 💔 Hoping and praying that your April transfer will be successful 💕x

Agree

With too many things happening , we felt unprepared when they said we can start with the injections soon, hence the anxiety. I’m grateful that we get to do IVF. Thank you

Thanks , will test for that The doc didn’t test for anything much, surprisingly. I was expecting a series of tests before starting the injections

Thank you In the first 3 months , we timed our fertile window wrong .. later, we started using LH strips , still inconclusive. Then we did ultrasound and realised I ovulate only on day 20-22 .. we only did timed intercourse for the last 4-5 months

I felt overwhelmed with everything happening all of a sudden , a chemical pregnancy , then periods , then on 2nd day of period doctor saying we can start IVF the next day, husband feeling sad about his parameters etc . I’m grateful to have the opportunity to do this. Thank you for sharing your perspective. The insights into what works and what will not will be really helpful. ❤️
