Fabulous report!! :D Keep up the good work, Sharlene & Molly!!
Sounds like a good report, Sharlene! You deserve a pat on the back at the very least (maybe it's lobster time now? ya know, as in someone drives you to the lobster and cooks it and cleans up after? :D ).
Could be lobster for lunch and dinner time!!!!!! Great news...
Yes, terrific well-deserved news indeed!:p
good news for you and molly!
I am thinking about this and need to decide today.
Before we keep molly at 15mg, maybe I should have another test in 2 weeks to see if she has dropped further or too much.
Looking at this history, I have some concerns:

Any thoughts? I'm wondering if maybe she will continue to drop too much on the 15mg and needs to be a 14mg or 13mg instead.
I just don't know, but since I can't get off for a test till later in June, I don't want to take any risks..arghh
My IMS said she would order in 40pills of 15mg for monday. So, I'd have to send an email saying not to place that order today.
What a drop in that post number! which is good!
She was increased to the 15 mg after that March stim test? If so that I think the 15 mg should be fine. You could always get the Trilo compounded in a few 2 mg and 10 mg capsules if you decide to decrease her 15 mg dose, although that would probably be a pain in the butt.
How does she seem to be feeling?
We didn't increase the dosage until 2 weeks ago as I didn't want to have an increase during the whole wedding stuff going on. So she stayed on 11 mg until 2 weeks ago when we increased to 15 mg It scares me that she dropped that much that fast.
I think she is okay at this level. It is going lower that worries me.
Sharlene -- I'm trying to follow the numbers you posted but am confused. Why are there three numbers for all the tests except for the 5/7 test rather than just pre & post numbers?
In canada we used the same stimulating agent uses in the UK Australia Europe. That company was sold and it is no longer available to be used for "pets". This last test was done using the same stimulating agent used in the US and follows its protocol of only doing one post draw.
