The story of a French girl who lives in Florida with her husband of 12 years --he is from Alabama, how did we get together? :)-- I was diagnosed with Balanced Translocation of chromosomes 5 and 10 in 2007. In January 2012, FSH is slightly elevated. In May 2012, diminished ovarian reserve confirmed. We've had 6 miscarriages so far...

Blood Work
Hello everyone! So I went to get some blood work done yesterday at my OB/GYN. It was supposed to be cd21 testing (progesterone) and thyroid I believe. After the nurse was done with the blood and needle part (yikes.....), I asked her if they would also test the thyroid (the doc had said that it should be checked also, just in case). But when we looked at my chart (the hand written part of what doc said should be tested), the nurse was a little confused. On the line that said cd21 testing, the cd21 was crossed out with a scribble on top of it and on the remaining part of the line it said something about the thyroid. The nurse said she was going to find out for me if both things would be checked (progesterone + thyroid). I was a little pi**** off. Why not just checking all that needs to be checked and be clear about it??? When I get the results next week, I will have to ask what was tested. If for some reason, only one thing was checked, I know I will have to take the bull by the horns again, open my mouth, make an appointment, and ask if this or this or this should be tested. I get so frustrated sometimes. I know that my BT is most likely the cause of my 5 m/c's....... but I would like to make sure everything else is ok!!!!! We never know..... I might get lucky and a good little egg might come by someday..... ugghhhh........... sorry, I just had to let it out!
