I can feel my right fallopian tube aching right now.
I have never felt a fallopian tube in my life! First the follicle pain weirded me out, given that I'd never felt anything like THAT before (finally had to take Tylenol) and now it's my fallopian tube, though "pain" is probably too strong a word.
Has anyone else felt this on a stimulated cycle? I know it's not my imagination--it interrupted what I was doing/thinking about with its achiness.
I'm guessing it's the egg/blastocyst *crosses fingers* descending the fallopian tube, but that's something I've never felt before or even read about. Either way, the egg/blastie should be TINY, so how can I feel it? (Then again, I thought ovarian pain with Clomid was only in cases of OHSS. How wrong I was!)
Great. Now I'm freaking myself out about the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy!
Re: Now for new weirdness...
Definitely not in my head. It got bad enough (definitely into real pain territory) that I took 1.5 extra strength acetaminophen, and then I promptly forgot about it until I realized that I wasn't really hurting anymore an hour later. Well, duh--the painkillers pretty much worked.
This is so crazy that it makes me think I'm imagining things. Never felt anything like it...

I think it's just the medication!
Sheesh. If I'm like this with 2 good/1 poor follicle, I'd be hanging from the ceiling on a serious stim protocol!
I can still feel it, but the achiness is slight, and there's no pain now.

Since yesterday, there's been a big fat ZILCH! So it was some weird ovulation thing for sure.
Bewbs are kinda sore, which is a good sign, but that's the Prometrium. Implantation can't be until Thurs at the earliest, but could take as long as Mon. Blood work Fri after next. *sighs*
If this doesn't work, it's time for a S/A, and I'll push for a post-coital.

Glad you aren't in pain anymore. I remember clomid gave me a lot of O pain too but I have no idea if it was my ovary or tube--you are good at localizing!
I hope this works! I thought I read somewhere that the post-coital test isn't really used much anymore, or maybe it's just that any issues could be bypassed with IUI.
