Hey ladies, I asked a question about this over on PAIF & SAIF, but I am really concerned right now. My blood pressure has been really high at every.single.monitering apppointment! I am so concerned that we will get to ER day and they will refuse to do it because of my blood pressure! It's been averaging around 140/98 each time. I have had this condition since I was a kid, it's genetic and probably related to weight a bit too now that I am older, but it;s always been controlled by meds.
I am not sure if it's because my job has been awful lately and I have been working more and sleeping less or just the stress of IVF itself, but I need to do something about this fast! I am seeing my family doc tomorrow (tried to get in today but they are booked) to see if I should up my dosage or not (I am on a pregnancy safe med). I am just so nervous that this isn't going to work. We might not get a second chance at IVF for a while because DH will be out of town a lot the next couple months.
On top of it all, my follies are growing wicked slow. I am on day 8 of stims and the biggest one is a 12. I looks like I have 5 on the right and 6 on the left. I just want to get this over with.
Ugh, thanks for listening ladies. Vent over!

I'm so sorry things aren't going great right now :-( The blood pressure problem is so scary -- I hope your doctor figures out a fix ASAP. My fingers are crossed for you that everything works itself out, and then your follies kick it into gear so you can get this show on the road!
