Nausea on Stims?

Hi ladies! Sorry to bother you with  what seems like a stupid question once I think about it, but I feel like death warmed over. That might be a little dramatic. But I feel horrible.

 

Have any of you been dizzy and had nausea while on stims? This is a new symptom for me, so of course I goo.gled it and came up with lots of mixed info. I go back for another monitoring appointment tomorrow so I'll ask then, but I'd like to hear from you ladies, also. I took some Pepto and it helped a little. My E2 went up quite a bit from the last draw, so that might have something to do with it? No clue.

I feel really weird. Not sure how to explain it. Maybe like I'm high? Head is in the clouds? Dizzy and nauseous? All of these? I hate to complain because I know it could be worse, but I'm just worried that this is all even normal and I'm not in the middle of my ovaries exploding or some other horrible thing

I'm no help as I haven't experienced this before but I hope you feel better soon!

The only thing I can think of is that I had horrible stomach pain from follistim during IUI#1. I didn't want to eat bc of the stomach pain. Can you increase your water intake? Or, TMI but could you be full of poop? I was bound up from follistim(or a coincidence but took a laxative and was better in a few days) Hope it goes away.

Thanks ladies for the support and suggestions. I've been told that I'm full of $hit before, but I think they mean something else

 

Just in case someone is searching the same thing later: My nurse said that she hears this complaint a lot once E2 levels start to rise and especially when it's later in the stimming. She said that so long as I'm tired (and I am) it's just the meds. If I wasn't tired, she'd be more concerned about OHSS. That was really good to know because I don't want to play that game again! When I asked the RE about it, he said that he didn't hear that complaint very much, but the nurse said that she does and overrode the RE. Then my RE admitted that most women only mention issues to the nurses because they think the women can understand better than these "old men RE's". Ha! I think I opened a can of worms!
