Stomach pain after ER/HCG injection
I swear I have the worst stomach pain ever - and not even cramping - it's actual stomach pain high up near my rib cage. Have any of you experienced this after ER/HCG? I can barely eat and feel like I am about to burst any second. The pain actually moves too - almost like it's really bad gas but it's not because it's not resolving itself. I'm not overly concerned yet because this happened with my first IUI cycle. It came about a day or so after I took the HCG and stuck around for a few days (I'm assuming till after the HCG left my system.) That cycle and this one, my E2 was really high at the time of trigger and I am sure I was overstimulated that cycle and I'm sure I'm overstimulated this cycle too. I am miserable.

Thanks - I'm sure this is my misery and hormones talking here but DH is worthless today. Then again, I'm not really asking for anything so I guess I can't expect him to read my mind. It doesn't help that Comcast keeps deactivating my cable box. ARGHH! They are going to find out why it's not a good idea to mess with a miserable hormonal IF!
Ok, gloves off if anyone messes with the cable! What would we have left to distract us? Sorry to hear that your DH isn't helping out much. If it makes you feel any better, I'm in the bedroom so my DH can play video games all day in the family room. And he has the tv so loud, I swear I can feel every "explosion" all the way upstairs. And darned it, why can't they read our minds just once and a while? It's not like we're that hard to predict after all these years of marriage. lol.

I had that exact pain after my IUI ... it went from uncomfortable to excrutiating in a few hours... The WORST.
It was the location of the pain that seemed weird to me - I thought I had the stomach flu because it was so high I didn't associate it with my reproductive parts. My dr. said I was hyperstimulated.
Really hoping you feel better ~ and soon!!!!
