Peak +11 results

I know it might not mean much at this point, but a week and a half later, I found out what my peak +11 test results were:

Progesterone: 18.23 
Estradiol: 210

(Just in case you're wondering, my peak +7 was 27 and peak +9 was 34.66)

The nurse started saying how it was good, but not as high as before, when I cut her off and was like, "Um, isn't 18.23 a pretty high peak + 11 progesterone level?" Turns out she thought it was peak +7! Yes, she agreed, that is high for peak +11! 

Who knows what it means, if anything, but all I know is my progesterone kicks butt on Tamoxifen. I mean, pre-Tamoxifen it peaked in the single digits! Plus, a year ago one of my problems was that my progesterone rose to a good level but fell off too early. So I would say that 18.23 on peak +11 pretty much shows I don't have that problem any more, don't you think?

The nurse who I talked to was super nice and felt bad it took so long for me to get the result. I also talked to her about how I will start a new cycle before my next doctor's appointment and how I will need to find out before then if my doctor wants to do another round of Tamoxifen next month. I said I know there might be reasons why not to do another cycle, but all I know is my cycles are totally normalizing and my progesterone is sky high and I'd hate to go back to how it was before. She thought those were all good points and said she'd write that in the note.

I also asked her about getting on a cancelation list (why do I always want to say cancelization?) and she said sure! She said she'd put my name on it and even added, "you should say some prayers and maybe you'll get a call!" I took that as a sign that I do need to say some prayers for it! 

I can't explain it, but it was just a good phone call. A nice attitude from a nurse can go a long way, I guess. 

Tonight is Sophie's big night! She'll be on the 11 p.m. news so if you're in the Richmond market, make sure to tune in! I'll post the video here as soon as I get it. I know you're all just on the edge of your seats waiting to see how she did! Not to give anything away, but I'll just say that thankfully Sophie is a really cute dog and will always get by on her looks.
