Thanks for your reply. I will have to investigate this persistent
corpus luteum theory further. I will be seeing my doctor soon. Is
pregnancy a remote possibility? I know of a few people whose urine tests
were negative, while the blood tests were positive. Just wondering,
since I've recently developed heartburn (which I never had before) and I
can't seem to stay awake past 9:30.
