I promise to flesh this post out later tonight. I'm just exhausted and need to be with my girl and my mama for a while.
The gist of it:
1. I will probably not be having an IUI this month, as it's cd 7 and ultrasound revealed a lining of 12.3 (!) and a follicle/cyst at 15+ Did I say I'm out of town and the earliest I could actually show up for an IUI is Tuesday?
2. I liked the doctor, whom I will hereafter refer to as Dr. Slideshow, MUCH more than I expected. My consult--the actual talking part--lasted close to two hours. I think if I'd had more questions, and the nurse hadn't paged him to tell him his next patient was there, he would have kept talking.
3. Nothing Dr. Slideshow said has pushed me in either direction. But most of my questions went to IVF not donor egg, so maybe that says something right there. The numbers say donor egg, but when he recommended doing eSET and their out-of-this-world stats go down to 55% I'm less impressed...
4. His office is not The Spa, which is how I thought about Dr. Gorgeous's place when I first met her. There was no bathrobe to wear, no tea in the waiting room, no chinese art. And he's not nearly as pretty :)
I still don't know what to do. Except schedule a follow-up with Dr. Gorgeous.
Sorry to hear the IUI isn't going to happen this cycle, and glad that you had a better consult than you expected. Two hours is an incredible amount of time! I look forward to hearing more about it. Hope you enjoy your weekend!

P.S. Since my next cycle will be a low-dose (75 iu/day) cycle, I would really love to take you up on your offer of the Menopur - please e-mail me at verymadhatter@live.com. Thank you!
