Better

I'm doing a little better. I'm still annoyed with my weight and annoyed with various coworkers but I'm not as upset about it as I was the other morning. And I've got a bit of snarkiness planned should anyone else feel the need to mention however nicely my weight. Of course I'm not big on the idea of going back to work tonight but I'm sure it will be fine.
I had to take a test yesterday for a basic arrhythmia class that I needed for work. I had went through all the stuff from the book but then when I got to the test and there were all these people who were taking the test for the second time and I was a bit freaked out. I did pass it though. Barely but I passed. Thank goodness. Now I have to do my ACLS. I've been told that is easier than the basic arrhythmia class I just finished so that works for me.
I did forget in all the drama the other morning to talk about my doctors appointment. I went up to Sacrament0 last week for a follow up appointment with my doctor and to see Bleu. The appointment went mostly well. Basically I had a fairly good response to meds etc. The quality of my embryos at day 3 was good, at day 5 was not so good. What the doctor said is it could be a sperm or an egg issue. If I tried again it might work or it might turn out the same way. His feeling was that it wasn't anything wrong with me that was preventing embryos from growing, implanting etc. We also discussed the donor egg thing. My reasoning again is that if I were to try again with my own eggs and it were to fail I would be angry at myself. I would feel like I unnecessarily set myself back even farther. Plus with waiting at least a year (ugg!) my egg quality isn't going to be any better. I was surprised at costs he listed for the donor egg cycles. They weren't nearly as much as I thought they would be and he has pretty good statistics for pregnancy with donor eggs. He does split donor cycles which is where two people split the cost and the eggs of the donor. Usually you still end up with enough for a fresh cycle and at least 1-2 FET's with the split cycle. The cost is really not that bad compared to other mentions I've heard on cost. The cost for a known donor cycle (using my sister) would be about the same as the split cycle but I would get all the eggs. Still though it's less than I thought I would have to save so that is a huge plus. I'm encouraged by this. So I am planning to move forward to donor eggs using sister and if for some reason that doesn't work out the cost for anonymous donor isn't that much of a difference. We talked again about the rash I get with the meds. His first thought was that it was from one of the carriers in the injectibles but when I mentioned that I start getting it with the bcps he didn't know what to think. It was worse this time than the first cycle. I actually still have it some but am hoping that after my period (whenever the hell it shows up) maybe my hormone levels will drop more and it will go away. Please. I'm tired of itching.
My friends Jan and Jim from home are in SF this week and on Friday I'm planning on driving up there to spend the day with them. I'm excited about that. I can't wait to see them. I am trying to figure out where I might be able to park outside of SF and take Bart or something in and where to meet. Otherwise not much going on. It was really busy at work the last couple nights I was there. It was kind of nice the nights flew by.
