Having a cycle cancelled is devastating enough, but when it seems like it could have been avoided, that makes it all the worse.<BR/><BR/>I hesitate to offer my assvice, because I don't know your full situation, but I agree with the others that a 2nd opinion might be in order.<BR/><BR/>My RE does the same thing as yours - puts everyone on the same schedule so that all ER/ET happen in a one week period, but he still does a baseline U/S and bloodwork on Day 3 and uses that to set the suppression protocol.<BR/><BR/>The fact that you specifically asked for more monitoring (a perfectly reasonable request given your history) and that was summarily dismissed concerns me - especially in light of this potential outcome.<BR/><BR/>I am praying that the extra hit of Lupron does the trick and you're able to go forward.

My first cycle was canceled last month- Lupron wasn't suppressing me and I had a monster of a cyst. I hope that the ovaries slow down over the weekend...

We moved to a clinic that is actually 2 hours away. It sucks in many ways, but it works, and we're happier with the individualized care we've received at the new Clinic (although I've found that every RE has his/her downfalls). It can work - even if it's far away because you can always do your monitoring right where you are. <BR/><BR/>Just something to think about. <BR/><BR/>Wish I had some amazingly humorous video to make you laugh and get through this the same way you have helped me laugh when I wanted to pull my hair out, but alas, I'm not that savvy and often ask myself, "How in the hell did she do that?"<BR/><BR/>Hope you're having a peaceful Friday evening.Leslie Lainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978669963745464690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4881629173943208551.post-81406316541502506272009-02-27T15:39:00.000-06:002009-02-27T15:39:00.000-06:00Megan, I'm so sorry for the bad news.

I'm going to sound like a broken record here but I agree with the other comments and a second opinion with a new RE can't hurt. I know that when we switched REs it was like getting a fresh start--new eyes, new ideas, etc. And your confidence level will sky-rocket if you truly believe in what your RE is doing and saying. <BR/><BR/>I hope the outcome changes, but if not, know I'm thinking of you!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03929532974271442167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4881629173943208551.post-87861391580894744792009-02-27T14:36:00.000-06:002009-02-27T14:36:00.000-06:00Sorry to hear that this cycle may not work...but i...Sorry to hear that this cycle may not work...but it does sound like your doctor is not considering your unique situation - just his own convenience. I hope that you have other options for doctors, because once you stop trusting their judgement, you might as well stop seeing them entirely.

It seems like most REs, regardless of how much they normally monitor, would indeed monitor someone more after OHSS. In your situation I'd be raising hell!<BR/><BR/>And is a canceled cycle free? Otherwise the waste of time and money has been the cycle itself, not the monitoring.<BR/><BR/>Hope the Lupron does the trick.
