IVF drugs here, a little overwhelmed

militarywife2b · November 2008

Well all but the menopur has arrived and I must say I am really overwhelmed, goodness how many shots will I have to administer??? Geesh Louise......

P.S I put my lupron and PIO in a draw instead of the fridge is that or should I move it

double check with your pharmacy/RE about what to refrigerate. I had to keep my Lupron in the fridge but the PIO at room temp. it's overwhelming at first, but just take it one day at a time! you won't be doing a million shots in one day - you can get out the meds you'll be using first and put the rest away until you need them. good luck!

This is the way to go. Only have out what you need in this moment. Also, I found it helpful to have a special place to keep my meds. I got a little organizer with drawers for all the things I need (syringes, alcohold wipes, etc.). It was nice to have it all organized in one place.

Yah - definately exciting and scary at the same time!

It is a lot to look at, isn't it? I just got the call today saying that my meds were on order, and they ordered a lot. As for the lupron, some of it needs to be cold, and others are fine room temp. I'd read the label or call the pharmacy for instructions. PIO does not need to be cooled. GL!
