Done with Pretesting!

So it's official!! As of today at 3pm I am DONE with all of my IVF pre-testing!!! I had my last test today, the sonohysterogram (SHG). It went well! It did not hurt one bit. A little bit uncomfortable, but definitely not painful. I barely felt any cramps when the catheter was introduced and the water injected into my uterus. The OB/GYN said that everything looked normal! I got to see my uterus and my ovaries and they all looked normal! Whew!

Now if only I could get the REST of my pre-testing results!!! STILL waiting to hear about my FSH, LH, and Estradiol levels from CD 3. That was a week ago! Erg! I'm not very patient!

I had an allergic reaction to the generic Levothyroxine, so the pharmacy switched me to the brand name- Synthroid. Today I am feeling much better! On Friday my eyes started feeling dry and scratchy, then by Sunday I had hives and my whole face felt itchy and flushed! It felt like I had cats all over me (I'm deathly allergic to cats)! So far I am feeling better instead of worse on the Synthroid. If it was the active ingredient (Levothyroxine) that I was allergic to I would still be getting worse even on the brand name version, but I am feeling better so I think it was something in the generic pill. I had heard of people not tolerating generic Levo well, but I had hoped I wasn't one of them! Guess I was wrong! Now lets hope that my 50mcg of Synthroid a day are doing the trick!!!

I'm getting so hopeful (but trying to stay realistic) that I actually might be able to cycle in a few weeks! If the rest of my pre-testing comes back normal, and my TSH stabilizes then there is a good possibility it will happen! However, I have heard that it may take more than a month for my TSH to come back down to normal as it is a gradual decrease when starting Synthroid. So I'm trying to stay realistic and not get my hopes up too high.

I'll update when I know anything else!
