Infertility

Is this a side effect, or did someone slip me meth?

Seriously, I don't know what's going on with me, but for the last 38 hours I have been absolutely crawling out of my skin. The timeline fits reasonably well with about when I bumped up to 3 vivelle patches EOD. I am also on Estrace, both orally and vaginally. I'm now on 4 patches EOD for the duration, plus the Estrace.

I feel like I'm on the border of a panic attack at some points. I feel all twitchy and janky. I cannot calm the hell down. I couldn't go to bed until 2am last night, and then only slept fitfully until 7. The doctors' office doesn't take non-emergent calls on the weekends, so I'm kinda in a holding pattern here.

Is this the estrogen? I don't remember this from May, but I also wasn't taking the additional Estrace at that point.

  • That's good to hear. I mean, not for you, but it makes me feel less crazy. Because holy shit, I feel like I need a sedative.

  • @IFinTN, I wouldn't count on this happening. I swear I don't remember feeling like this last time around.

  • I recommend acupuncture! It totally helps me with symptoms like this. GL!
  • It seems to be less severe today. I'm hoping it was just an adjustment period, and I'm almost through this.

  • So, I went in for b/w today, and my estradiol came back at over 2500, up from 42 one week ago. 

    So, you know, that might explain The Crazy. Holy hell.

  • @SunnyB, to my knowledge, they just want it above 300. So I am over-achieving.

    Great news! They never checked mine during my last FET. Maybe I should ask why?

  • I'm hoping it's not TOO high, now, but since I've got just over week to lower it, I'm hoping it will be fine.

    They didn't check your E2 at all during your last FET?
