doctors update

Good news is that all hcg is out my system.  Bad news, he wants me to wait a cycle or two before trying again.  I told him that I didn't want to wait and this cycle is already out of question.  He said that I should have at least one normal cycle before trying.  So I guess if this weekend didn't do the trick, I'll skip the month of December and start fresh in the new year. 

We also came up with plan of action.  If I do miss my period this month, I'm to start the progesterone he gave me.  And see him sooner than my 3 week follow up.  If not, then I should go on to at least one normal cycle where we don't TTC.  Then I am to start clomid, if I want to, on CD5.  I'm on the fence with this one.  But he thinks it could be the quality of my eggs since I'm getting older.  He made no promises or guarantees, but said it can't hurt to try.  He also gave me lab work to get more blood drawn.  He wants me to test for prolactin, tsh, anti lupus, anti cardiolipn, protein c, ana, toxoplasma, rpr and cmv.  I'm curious about all the lab work.  I want to know where I stand in all those areas. 

I'm not so keen on clomid.  Progesterone, I have no problem with, especially since I lost Roo.  I'll do whatever it takes not to lose another one.  I also stopped all my meds, I was only down to nasonex and rescue inhaler when needed, but now I'm going to stop the nasonex too.  That could have played a factor in my recent loss, being that it's a category c drug.  I asked if my endo could have played a part, and he said it's rare that endo causes miscarriages.  So he truly thinks it's the quality of my eggs.  Ughhh and Kev isn't too keen on going with medical intervention, neither am I.  But I want a baby.
