PGS Results


Though I "don't believe" in magical thinking, you might notice how I kept that last, upbeat post as the final word during my wait for the PGS results. Coincidence? Nope.

It was a full two-week wait—my first one in many months. Thanks to a billing screw-up, it turns out that the lab has had my results for a while and was just waiting for payment. Good thing I called yesterday morning to make sure that everything was OK.

Several phone numbers and discussions later, the lab finally called this morning to collect $2,250 (thank you, MasterCard), and in return they finally released the report to my clinic. A nurse called 30 long minutes later.

Shakespeare it is.

Magical thinking didn't work. All three embryos are abnormal. Two have multiple problems, and none are compatible with life.

  1. Ugh! Pisses me off. I have no comforting words, because I am a bitter infertile, but I'm thinking of you and hoping you are ok.

  2. Oh Hope, my heart breaks for you. I am just so sorry...I wish I could offer more, come over with a bottle of red and some chocolate and rage against the universe with and for you. Know that I am, from afar, but also that I am sending you all the healing, calming energy I can muster. Hugs to you friend.

  6. I am so sorry. What a crushing blow, you must feel like the wind has been knocked out of your sails, and then some. I am so angry on your behalf!

    I know of someone else whose PGD results came back as all abnormal. Perhaps it will bring you a tiny comfort in future to know you're not the only person this happened to? She blogs at JustBeeCuzzzz.com.

    Meanwhile, I hold you in my thoughts and send you much love and healing xo
