still in limbo

Today appears to be Day 1 of my cycle, so I called the office and talked with a nurse. She had SOME good news for me... the 2nd possible person that was in line for these embryos has decided not to use them, so I assumed, based on the doctor's email, that all should be a go for me. There is still this one person ahead of me, and NOW the concern of the office apparently is that she needs to be ready for her transfer before me. I told the nurse that from the doctor's email, this other person has already begun their medications, so surely I could begin mine without that concern. She needs to check with the head nurse and will call me back tomorrow, but if it's fine she'll get the medications all ordered, however she said this other person has JUST begun so she is not sure I should start so quickly. ARGH. I still don't understand.... even if we were BOTH ready for transfer on the same day, they could simply schedule her's first and have mine following, and if when it got to me they didn't have embryos left then I'd be out of luck.... which we all know wouldn't happen because once again there are TWELVE embryos! Ok, breathe... the protocol is to begin birth control pills the first day of your period, and 5 days later I think it is begin the injections. She said that it's fine to not begin the pills til tomorrow, so as long as they give the go ahead and call me tomorrow I can get started. If I don't hear from them by about 10am I'll be calling them!
