Sorry boo I got a little bit freaked out at the idea of maybe wanting to eat my plan, so went into hiding 
Sorry that the stimming didn't agree with you too well maybe, but brooking that all that is behind you now. I can't believe you haven't had daily updates on your embies! I have everything crossed and then some for Monday for you.
cups I hope the down regging isn't too bad for you, it won't be long before you're stimming.
beedle how are you doing? When are you coming to the uk? Could we coincide a brooking meet-up?
Sorry not to namecheck more, I've been keeping my distance from the fred to try and get a bit of sanity back so I'm not completely sure what everybody else is up to. Whatever stage you are at in your cycle though, I am brooking for you all.
MrG's work issues have gone as well as could be expected, we now have three months more of worry then hopefully it will all be over (as in he still has a job).
Saw the consultant this morning. He didn't like our plan :( He doesn't understand why I think my eggs are an issue (I did try to explain) and said if anything needed to be replaced it wasn't the eggs, it was the sperm. For some reason I am really quite gutted about that. Possibly because it really does draw a line under us never being able to get pg naturally. It's actually harder for me to get my head around than egg donation. MrG and I haven't really talked about it since the appointment.
The cons wants us to go ahead with our next NHS cycle with own eggs, own sperm, as we had planned. He was very negative about the immunes testing. He really doesn't believe in it. He also poo-pood the idea that testosterone replacement therapy might help MrG's swimmers.
At first he wasn't going to change anything about our protocol, because he said I'd responded pretty well. I think, in response to my concerns about egg quality, though, he had changed his mind by the end of the appointment. He now wants to down reg me for two months to try and dry up the endometriosis. He agrees my left ovary is effectively a write-off but thinks doing this will have a positive impact on my right ovary and decrease chances of a hostile environment in my womble. Stimming will then be as normal, but I will have an increased risk of OHSS due to my PCOS.
On the plus side, he doesn't want to remove my fibroid. I gave a silent cheer at that, I would have struggled to face going through full open surgery again. I did that 13 years ago and can still remember the weeks of pain that followed.
As MrG's work issues won't be fully resolved for three months, we've agreed between ourselves not to go ahead on my next cycle as that would mean we would be IVFing just at the most worrying time for MrG's job. So we are going to let the next cycle happen naturally, then start with the down regging.
Sorry, that was an awful lot of mememe. I'll maybe just get this cycle out of the way then hopefully be back in the land of brooking full time again.
Ooh sorry, I can't remember who asked - the biscuit came joint third out of about 15. I'm rather glad not to have won, the winner has to decorate a cake to enter into the county competition!
