3rd Follie Check Update

CallMeAlCallMeAl member
in Infertility

Between 10 and 15 follies around 13 or 14 mm. Lining was 9 and E2 was 672. They are backing my meds off a little tonight (thank goodness because I am on sky high doses) and I have to go back in the morning. Seems like I'm on track for Wednesday ER. 

On another note, I had my first hormonal breakdown yesterday, after a week of stims. I am feeling quite done with this. I know that's normal....this process is so freaking rough. To all the ladies that have completed several IVF cycles: You are my heroes.

    Awww thanks Star! I am grateful that they see me so much, but on the other hand, I have to drive 1.5 hrs each way to see them... so it's kind of a pain at the same time. But it is nice to have such a good idea of what's happening. 

    I meant to tell you... I had the EXACT same thing you described last night when I did my Ganirelix injection. Itchy, red, burning, raised rash just around the injection site. I asked the RE today when I saw him, and he said it's normal as long as it doesn't spread.

    Thats a relief!! The doctor called me today about the rash and said to take a benedryl if it really bothers me.. I keep thinking.. only two more days of these hopefully and we will both be triggering on Monday!!

    Sounds good and you and I seem to be right at the same points in cycles (see my posts just a few posts down). I think my cycles going to be weds or thurs.

    So sorry you had a rough day yesterday! The stims and anxiety and worry, etc are so rough. Big (hugs)

    Good luck cycle buddy!

    I know... I've been counting down the number of injections in my stomach I have left. I think I'm probably down to 6 or 7 left. Then PIO starts though :( But at least my poor stomach will be left alone!

    Looks like Wednesday is a popular day!  I too will likely head in for ER then.  I am also quite bloated and have discomfort in the ovary areas.  AND to continue complaining, I also have a nasty headache, which I was told is a common side-effect from orgalutran. I haven't moved too far from my couch today.

     COME ON WEDNESDAY!Smile  Good luck to all the cycle buddies!!

    GREAT news!! I can't wait to hear how everything goes Wednesday. I'm sorry to hear about your breakdown yesterday. I think you're doing an awesome job through this!!

    There are so many highs and lows of IF (or maybe it's lows and lowers?) but in the end it will all be worth it!

    FWIW I had a major breakdown last night as well. CD1+lots of crap at work=major breakdown. 

    Hang in there and good luck this week!!

    Looks awesome, can't wait to hear all about your ER! 

    I'm super impressed that you have lasted a week without a hormonal breakdown yet!!!!  You cry it out, lady, you deserve it!  Almost there!
