The Hut of Gl/Doom Part V- for the unapologetically despondent

The new hut. Ta-da!

This one is a snug little basement World War 2 type nightclub, with dim lighting, snug velvet sofas, red walls and certainly no politically correct smoking bans. Occasionally certain selected men may be admitted at our convenience.

Sit down, make yourselves at home, and never, ever apologise for feeling like shit. That's about it.

Thanks, but it didn't show the article - said not found. The main thing I wanted to know was whether she had a type of PCOS that was not detectable via a routine transvaginal scan.

Anniemac, just wanted to let you know about an article in todays Mail in the health section.

ladylush · 04/02/2008 18:30

Duchesse my TSH was 6.8 and T4 about 15. I knew the result before going to the gp and armed myself with loads of references. There is strong guidance to treat women with TSH levels greater than 2 who are ttc. The optimum TSH range in the first trimester of pregnancy is 0-2 - ideally with a figure closer to 0. T4 should ideally be at the upper end of the range. I've got loads of links if you need any. According to so called average ranges (since when were any of us average )I have sub-clinical hypothyroidism. So why then, do I suddenly feel awake (rhetorical question).

Lissie - May I add my heartiest of congrats. And positive vibes.

Hey Lissielou - do hope this is a goer / stayer / sticker. Positive emanations....
MONTHS & months since I was on mn. Been very busy. At work, not being pregnant, sadly. Getting used to life in the, 'No, I don't have children, sadly. No, it wasn't a choice. No, it's ok.'- Gang.
Duchesse, are you still around?

Triggles · 03/02/2008 21:34

thats great news! everything crossed for you. x

right, must go, dh is home and cooking dinner so had best be dutiful for an hour.

ladylush · 03/02/2008 17:15

I meant a sticker for you

Thyroid wise I am on 75mcg daily. My TSH is within range but higher than ideal for conception purposes - hence the recent increase. Feeling much better - more alert, able to concentrate better etc. The hospital lost my Prolactin bloods so I have to get this done again. Also I am still waiting for Thyroid anti-bodies results.

OracleInaCoracle · 03/02/2008 17:11

oh ll any news on the thyroid issue?

ladylush · 03/02/2008 17:00

I'm ok. Got a bfn this morning but only cd26. I'm so impatient. I am glad though that I've had no breakthrough bleeding this month, it feels like an ordinary cycle iyswim. 71% is good enough odds I reckon, so fingers crossed that this one is a sticker

OracleInaCoracle · 03/02/2008 16:57

thank you, how are you doing?

ps, can i stay here for a bit please? soooooo not ready to leave!

ladylush · 03/02/2008 16:56
