Barbara, thanks so much for responding. I am at work (with too much free time on my hands) and I can't stop thinking about it, I can barely function! I am going to my regular Dr. next Tue (a little less than a week before my period),maybe he can take a blood test. I do have sitting in my drawer a first response test, that test up to 4 days prior to your period but it's too early for that. Like you said, I guess it's just a waiting game.
