Speed bump overcame

The day once again started off on a bad note for me. I had difficulty sleeping again. Was kept awake by hubby's snoring. Went out of the bed room at 2am, guess manage to nap for an hour. Woke up at 3am and went back into the room. But still couldn't get to sleep. Went back to the sofa at 3.30am. I think while watching "Fashion House" I manage to fall asleep again. But I was once again woken up at around 4.20am. Went back into the bedroom and somehow manage to sleep despite the snoring. N before I knew it my alarm rang at 5.45am, a signal for me to wake up to go to work. Oh what a headache I had the moment I woke up. Don't even ask how groggy I was. I could have snapped at hubby at any time. Luckily he didn't ask any questions.

Went off to work, had breakfast and attended the meeting. I was still holding on to my hp and waiting for that phone call. By 11am when I didnt received any call, I decided to pick up the phone and give them a call. Not easy to get through. Must have been a busy morning. I can imagine seeing all the nurses running around to settle all the cases that they have for the morning. I do feel for them. Some of the nurses are really trying their very best to help us. I can't say for all but most of them are trying and I shouldn't have gotten upset yesterday. But with hormones running wild in me and my anxiety attack, you can't blame me for getting irritated okay.

Okay back to the phone call. After approximately the 7th time, there was finally a ringing tone. Spoke to a nurse, I believe her name was Sara. Very sweet sounding lady. I told her how someone was supposed to call me back but never did. She tried to get my records. She said she thought she saw it somewhere. She put me on hold and when she got back to me she said that she will call me back within the next 10 minutes. Promise!! That was so sweet of her.

N true enough she did call me back within the next 10 minutes. She asked me some general questions, told me that all my blood works came back normal and told me i can come down to the clinic on the 26th of November for my lucrin injections. So there you go... Speed bump overcame.

I just need to be more relax and not be so kancheong. I am sure the nurses know what they are doing and they won't go to the extent of losing my case file. See what wild hormones can do to the brain. I need to go occupy myself before I start thinking of things I am not supposed to be thinking of. Whatever that may be. Till my next entry.

I shall leave you with my bloodwork results:
FSH --> 6.2 -->1.7 - 7.7
LH -->3.3 -->1.0 - 11.4
E2 -->92.9 --> 36.7 - 404
Prolactin -->13.4 -->5.0 - 27.7
Testosterone --> 0.7 -->0.2 - 3.00
Progesterone -->41.2 -->24.7 - 86.8

The first column is the types of hormones they are checking for, the second number is my results and the 3rd column is the reference range. So I guess base on the results, all my results are within the reference range thus it's good. Time for me to sleep. No more thinking of what's next. At least not for the next 2 days. Will be back at the clinic on Friday.

So glad the numbers came back and looked good! and glad they didn't loose your file ;) Don't worry I'm just like that, call my nurse all the time because I'm so paranoid about things falling through the cracks. I'm sure she will be happy to get rid of me!
