It is taking all my might not to vomit right now. I am home in my PJs. I could not go to work with this massive headache and I am trying so hard not to puke. ughhhhH!!!

My follies this AM only showed lots of little ones, nothing measurable yet. Grow, follies! I can't imagine this nausea is going to go away.

Barf. ?

    i'm sorry you're feeling this way... my side effects on gonal and menopur were really minimal... just ovarian achiness, moodiness and fatigue.

    The lupron for me was the worst with the nausea and migraines.

    Have you had your E2 measurement yet? I know that when my E2 was rising really fast I would also get headaches and vomit while on stims. I think it has to do with the hormones changing so quickly. Hope you feel better.

    Oh no!  Nausea sucks, I am sorry.  I'm also taking the GonalF and Menopur, but haven't had either of those symptoms :(  Are they listed as common side effects?

    I hope it goes away for you!

    This. I am on Follistim and only day 3 of stims. Last night my headache was so bad and mH reminded me that I got a bad headache when my E2 went over 3000.... so I ran to RE this morning to get checked. The nurse said that for me it is probably the anti-biotic mixed with the follistim. But I find out later if I have to decrease follistim dose.

    I am on Follistim and Menopur right now and have pretty much had a dull headache for the last 8 days.  It stinks.  The first two days were the worst.  Hang in there....
