this is a XP from GP butttt...
My doctor called to let me know she wants to start testing NOW. Why now? I don't know. But yes. NOW.
DH has his sperm analysis tomorrow! He is totally nervous
The plan was for me to go do a HCG blood test today and then Saturday am fast for 12 hours and get 10 tests done.
I walked into the lab and they had all 11 vials ready for me. I was like ... huh? So they did ALL the ones that I didn't need to fast for. So for me who is terrible at giving blood, I ended up giving 5 vials on my lunch break!
I wrote all the tests down, but she said them so fast I only wrote parts and still don't know what they are.....this is what I got: pholo, lut , tsh, prolac, estro, testos, net, bc, rub, hep.
Hopefully by next week I'll have some answers. Cross them for me!
Re: Fingers, legs, toes, arms, anything X'd?
Did I miss something? What are all these tests for & sperm analysis? I mean yeah I get that it's GP-related but why? Just seeing if you guys are "ok" or something else?
Either way everything is crossed, any holy cowwww 5 vials of blood would give me a heart attack!
OOO good luck!
(I don't get what half of those terms mean, but I hope you get the results you want!)
Yikes! That's an insane amount of blood! Doesn't make sense why they can't do all the tests off of a few vials.....but I don't know much about lab work.
Everything is crossed that you get some answers and that the answers are easily solvable.

This!! Good luck!!
Good luck with all of it. Jeff was kind of nervous when he had his SA done, too (especially because he doesn't live the healthiest lifestyle), but it all came back great. Keep in mind, that if anything (yours or his) comes back with a problem, you are both young enough where they have time to get things corrected quickly. People were shocked at how soon I wanted all of my testing and stuff done, but like I told my doctor, I didn't want to try for five years THEN start to fix things.
Hoping everything comes back perfectly!!!
