um...no. i called my nurse, just to let her know and to maybe make a note in my file (before i have them transfered) and she practically yelled at me and told me that i wasnt pregnant, that it was just the trigger shot (when the other nurse, the "alternate" or whatever, told me that it was out in 10 days or less) and that any symptoms i was experiencing was from that. like im an idiot. i told her that i used frer and the the lines got light, almost nonexistant, then got darker for a couple days before going negative again. she was just like "it's the shot". totally discounting that i have just had a chemical, not taking into consideration that i know what im talking about, and not taking into consideration that im having a miscarriage, albeit, a chemical. just being a f*cking b!tch! i know what it feels like to be pregant. and i know what symptoms i had and i had a ton. im a negative person and feel that i will never conceive, so when even i know that i conceived, trust me, i did. when i told her that the tests were now negative she was like "that's good, then they wont be positive until CD12 and it's good you had spotting."...that's when i hung up. has she ever heard of early result tests anyway?
i just met with my new RE and he is AWESOME. of course i had a huge breakdown and felt like such a fool....this guy has been around forever and i could tell that he felt so bad...he was like, watching me leave and was telling the other nurses to be nice to me (i had to go get blood). and he totally believed me that it was a chemical pregnancy. he was like "you know what it's like to be pregnant and if the tests get lighter and then darker, it is pregnancy not shot". i told him that i was charting and that my temps had skyrocketed and he was like "also another sign". he also confirmed that those frers detect such low amounts of hcg, that they are practically as good as a blood test...in terms of confirming whether or not there is hcg present, obviously b/w is needed for the beta. why didnt i just go to him in the first place??
anyways, interestingly he isnt pushing IVF right away like the other RE. he wants me to have a break cycle and let my body recover from the chemical pg, and wants us to do timed intercourse next month. then after that, 3 months of clomid since i seem to respond very well to it. THEN IVF. he also didnt think that my progesterone levels were even that bad! sorry, im done, that turned into a long drawn out post.

Gosh whats up with nurses. Like the one who was giving me some nonsense about IUI and IVF and I just had to cut her off and tell her to talk to the doc and then call me back. That return call was then much nicer!

Anyhow I am glad u like ur new RE...i feel ur almost there..DOR dx or not..u respond to meds and thats key to success.
