missed period

So I am 19 days late.  Took HPT and it was negative.  I've been off dostinex for about 2 months because I changed jobs and I've been waiting for cobra to kick in and pay for the medication.   I have just about every symptom of pregnancy, but I'm guessing it's due to the lack of dostinex.

I called my endo to tell her about it and I am waiting to hear back.  I asked her to write an order for me to get some blood work.  HCG, Prolactin, TSH and anything else related to fertility.  My last Prolactin reading was about a month ago while off the dostinex and it read around 10.  I am normally around 3 when on dostinex, but 10 is still well with in range.  

Just waiting for her to call me back today has been the first day I've really stressed over it.  I keep thinking my period will just come.  I'm not stressing much about anything else in life that would cause my cycle to be out of whack.

I went in for the blood work this morning.  She ordered everything under the sun as usual.  So I should know something by tomorrow on most of the tests.  

Rumpled, do you have any Vitamin D issues?  I can't get mine to come up.
