No results...yet!

Ahhhh!   This has been the longest day EVER!  Okay, I know I have said that every day I go for testing, but seriously today was the worst.  I worked all day and had a slow day, which was worse because I had nothing to do but worry all day long.  My blood work went smooth this morning.  I called the clinic this afternoon and arranged to have them leave a message with my results because I would be in session with a client.  And no call.  I checked my results online almost every 15 minutes.  No results.  I came home.  No phone call.  I took the dog out.  No call or results.  I came home and took a nap.  Nothing, nada.  I ate dinner. 

Finally, I checked online and my results are partially complete.  Only problem is, the Hcg is still not processed.  And that is the only result I need!  I had to do the others because the lab did not have a standing order for my Hcg so I asked them to take my other standing order (LH, Progesterone, estriadol) and then the clinic called to add Hcg.  And I still don't have results! 

I am sure my clinic receives the results before me... so I don't know why they didn't call.  That stresses me out.  Is something wrong and I have to wait for the doctor to call himself (normally the nurse tells me, and she told me she would call me today - I spoke to her 3 times!).  I just want to know my levels so badly.  I am going to the gym, despite tiredness and the fact that I already took a walk because I just need to DO something with myself.

In good news, my estrogen and progesterone are super high (I think that's good?).  Estrogen is 3493 and Progesterone is 248.  I still feel pregnant.  I had heartburn almost all afternoon.  I am tired.  My boobs hurt.  I just wish we could have some settledness and put this stress behind us. 

So, the photo prompt for today is drink.  Apart from the liters of water I've been drinking every day to avoid dehydration... I am a tea drinker.  I live for tea.  I love it.  I love the process of making tea.  I love boiling the water, hearing the kettle whistle, steeping the tea, stirring in cream and sugar, holding a warm cup, and taking a nice sip!  When I left my last job, this is the gift I received - a local, handmade pottery tea pot and cup.  I'm in love!
