Thoughts

Not much of anything new has happened. I haven't forgotten to take any of my shots lately which is a good thing. I had the flu this weekend. It is still lingering but as long as I am not throwing up I will take it.

I'm done with those blasted birth control pills. I will start my second injections on Friday. So then we will be at one in the morning and one in the evening. It is scary that the whole process is right around the corner again. I keep having nightmares about it. Sometimes it is about the egg retrieval sometimes it is after the baby is born.

Anyway, I have realized that it is easy to lose sight of what is really important as you go through all this.

For entertainment purposes only!

The trailer to a new movie coming out in April that I probably will not go to see for a while.

Whoops

Well, I would have sworn that I wrote an update about our DR visit a couple of weeks ago but it is not here. So here it is.

Apparently the retrieval was really rough because I have so much scare tissue and that causes a lot of pain. That would be why I missed a week of work. So, he said for this next time he will be better prepared. Hopefully I will be better prepared also. When I came to I was in a lot of pain. This time they are going to put me under completely.

So, I am on BCPs right now. I will start Lupron on 3/15 and Bravelle and Menopur on 3/28. The estimated retrieval date is 4/7 but they are increasing my meds to hopefully get more eggs and last time I responded quickly. I wouldn't be surprised if they scheduled it early again like last time.
