DH just gave me my first shot of Lupron. It didn't hurt at all. Nothing like ganirelix did. Hopefully the crazy foggy feeling skips me this time.
Anyone else just start Lupron or stims. I know Ilinigirl is right behind me. Like 3 days! Anyone else??
Re: 1st shot of Lupron! Anyone else??
I'm just a little ahead of you. I started lupron a week ago. I go in for a baseline in a few days and if all is good, I'll be starting stims this weekend!
It's weird how different this cycle feels. I haven't even iced once before my lupron shots this week! Usually, I'd make sure to ice for several minutes and had a whole routine down. I'm sure I'll have to break out the ice pack for the menopur -- not my favorite, but definitely better than ganirelix. Oh, how I wish I didn't know which shots stung more! LOL
Good luck to you!!

That's what I meant, that you started 3 days earlier. I shouldn't multi-task. Not sure when stims start. They said CD 5. I think I have 5 or 6 bcp left. SO then just need to wait for AF>.
