Hi Again Tracey, I am on the gold coast in Australia...My IVF doc is also on holidays but the public system, through my gp are seeing me for the scan. I have a wonderful GP who knows all that I am going through and rather than wait till the IVF crew are up and running again, she has organised a scan for me....she's a great doc. I am not sure where you are or how your process is done. For me, my IVF doctor said, I want you to have another test in two days, when this went up, he spoke with me and we both thought that it best to keep an eye on the hcg rising until it was at a stage that a scan could be done. It was a lot of tests but it did help me get through as I felt that I was at least doing something...but....it also did make me a little crazy with the numbers. If they hadn't doubled I thought there was something wrong, then one time they tripled and I was over the moon....etc etc...apparently at some stage (once the numbers are getting high) they just need to be rising, not doubling. I feel for you as I know it just about does your head in not knowing. At some stage, I just had to let it go and figured, what can I do......I have to take whatever comes my way and deal with it then. I would be phoning straight away and getting more blood tests if I was you, even it its just for the first little while till you feel secure. Do you have any signs of being pregnant? Is this your first pregnancy?
