After a couple of days of agony, we got the call from the lab this morning that we have two blastocysts, graded at a 17+ and an 18 (of 20), on ice. They were able to biopsy both and we should have the results in a week or so.
It will be interesting to see the entire lab report on all embryos to understand the day-by-day. Yesterday, on day five, I answered a call from the clinic and it was Dr. Hudson himself. I instantly felt a knot in my stomach certain that the news would be bad and all embryos had arrested. But we still had four, although the news wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear. As of yesterday, we had one hatching blast graded 17+ that was suitable for biopsy and vitrification (freezing), but only one other early blast graded at a 16, and two morulas. A morula is typically what is seen on day four, so they were a day behind. Not necessarily bad news, but not great either. The plan was to see what made it to blast and freeze with no biopsy - the concern was that they were of such low quality that attempting a biopsy would damage them to the point that they'd arrest.
Ending up with two, and having them graded higher than I expected, is great news!
The PGS results will tell the final story however. At my age, according to the research, we have about a 50/50 chance of a genetically normal embryo. Since we have two, we're looking at around a 66% chance of at least one genetically normal embryo. I am so thankful we made it this far - hopefully we have something to work with and we can move to the next stressful step in the process!

ReplyDelete"With Dr Williams,herbal medicine I felt very empowered after I started his medication and the results came very quickly I might add. Contrary to what my doctor had recommended, (that I would have my uterus removed) I have succeeded in less than 4 weeks to treat all the symptoms associated with my fibroids (including the pain, bleeding and bladder pressure) and within 4 weeks, my huge 8.2cm & 8.5cm fibroids had shrunk into almost nothing. Thank you so much for this terrific publication. I also recently experienced a symptom-free menstruation, which was nothing short of remarkable, considering the awful state I was in before I was introduced to dr williams life changing medication,for more information on how to get his medicine you can email him in drwilliam098675@gmail.com
