Another one bites the dust

I don't come bearing good news unfortunately...hcg level from yesterday came back at 50. I spoke to the clinic and confessed to them about the blood tests. A hard thing to do actually as the nurse was quite upset about it. I do feel bad, but I still maintain that they should have offered me the tests when I asked about it. And after all, all I did was follow my instinct, which turned out to be correct.

Anyway, I have asked whether or not I need to stay on the meds for the next 2 weeks. Recluctantly, she is checking with the specialist and getting back to me. With the level being so low and in particular, dropping, I really don't see the need for me to have to keep putting myself through all these drugs. A side effect of failing the cycle should be to allow me to have a part of my life back.

Oh Kath I'm sorry :(
I agree with you that the clinic should really check the actual hcg levels. Very odd that they don't...
Look after yourself xoxo
