    I was sooo miserable during stims b/c of the bloat! It sucked big time, and I DID break out my bella band at one point LOL.

    It was bad but, so worth it.  I had to stim for 12 days!

    I know how you feel.  I felt like my ovaries were going to explode when I was stimming on Follistim.  Hope you feel better soon.

    I feel your pain Sweety.  I did a year of injectible cycles and they only got marginally better once I started acupuncture.  Well, better as in I didn't have to stim for too long :)

    I hope it works for you!

    Oh, I forgot to ask you...Has anyone mentioned drinking Gatorade for the bloat?  My RE told me to do that b/c it help get some of that fluid out of your belly.  I know it sounds crazy but it really helped me.  Also, try to avoid salty foods.  GL
