I know I haven't written in awhile but honestly, there hasn't been much to report. I am still waiting for my cycle to start, so I can begin my increased dosage of the Femara. {The doctor and I compromised on the dosage. I am not taking the full 5mg increase that he recommended but rather a 3.5mg dose, up from 2.5mg, which I am much more comfortable with.}
Today is cycle day 44. The doctors called in a progesterone treatment to be taken for 10 days should my cycle not start on it's own, and when I went to pick it up, I stopped in the bathroom at the pharmacy and there was a bit of blood when I peed so I thought my period was coming - and left the pharmacy without my prescription. Why pay for a prescription if it's not needed, right? Well that was last Thursday, March 24 and it still hasn't started yet. I spotted very lightly {like once or twice a day} through the weekend but it's completely stopped now. Not quite sure what to make of that. The thought did creep in to my mind, "Could I be pregnant?" I did have some lower abdomen twinging that occurred about 2 weeks ago, but I thought it was my period gearing up to make an appearance. Maybe it was ovulation, just super late? I'm sure stranger things have happened but I honestly can't let myself go there. No use in getting excited over a prospect that is most likely not the case. I will probably give it a few more days and then test - if it's negative {and honestly, it will most likely be negative} then I'll call the doctor's office and have them call in my progesterone prescription again. As my grandmother used to say, "We shall see what we shall see."
