Re: ~*****~Throat Punch Thursday! ~*****~

  • The only TP I have is for my ovaries still not working (sigh) and for eating all the things instead of working overtime on my novel (double sigh). Oh! And TP to my boss. We don't have a busser tonight yet we have a banquet of over 50 people coming in. Genius. Gee, and I thought I didn't have a TP today...

  • ***pregnancy mentioned***



    I'd like to TP my patient who asked walked in without an appointment and asked to see me this morning saying it was important.  I know she's pregnant but she proceeded to shove u/s pictures in my face and tell me that they found out it's a girl and she wanted to thank me for helping her get her blood sugars under control thus helping her get pregnant.  I'm happy for her- but I didn't care much for the surprise visit in my office.  I did managed to smile and congratulate her, then she decided to tell me they are using Leah (my name) for the middle name since I helped her get pregnant.  It's a nice honor but I'm ready to scream at the same time.  

    I see wine and chocolate in my future tonight.

    Wow that *is* an honor. But I can also see why having it shoved in your face is rough. Big hugs!

    @kushie77 wow great work with your patient!! I hope your turn comes very soon so you can enjoy the honor without the irony attached to it. :(

    ETA:  I meant, the general irony that you have healed this woman while still having to undergo the IF struggle yourself...not a criticism that you shouldn't attach irony to it!!

  • OK my own TP...I can't figure out who deserves the TP that I didn't get testing before now. CD2 ultrasound showed my left ovary looks just like those Google pics of PCOS strand-of-pearls ovaries, but the nurse didn't say anything and now I have that sinking feeling, what were we doing all these years before getting help? So, maybe, TP excessive the optimism and patience that put me in this spot today??

    Was telling you that info really important? Jeez. But that's kind of sweet that her child is named after you. Leah is a pretty name.

    My week isn't so bad but I have a TP to period cramps. CD 2 and I'm still in so much pain.

  • I would like to TP my employer's prescription plan. They are no longer covering injects. When we first started I checked and everything was covered. I even went to check the formulary when it was time for open enrollment and they were all listed. However, when the Dr. called it in, nothing is covered except for the Ovidrel. Apparently while the drugs are on the formulary, they are not covered under my plan.  We do not qualify for any discount plans so we would have to pay everything OOP which we are still going back and forth on doing. If we are going to pay the money for the drugs we may as well just pay for IVF at this point.  I don't to wait longer but I feel like we need to take the summer off and just see what happens. DH has coverage on his plan we just have to wait til January for the switch. I ordered some natural supplements I figured I could try. 

    Also having to plan baby showers.  Right now with finding all of this out, I really do not need to be involved in my younger sister in law's shower planning but no one seems to understand. Everyone is pregnant and happy and I just want to be left alone.  My mother keeps telling me I should not be like this that you just need to get over it and move on but she doesn't understand, she never had problems with having kids.

    On a side note, how do I get my signature to post? I realized unless I copy and past I have to insert it all the time.

    ME: 37, unexplained, all tests normal, no blockage. I do have celiac disease though diag 2/09

  • I really want to TP my husband right now and my body.

    I have Ménière's disease and have had it for over 20 years. I'm completely deaf in my left year from all the years of spells I've had. I had endolymphatic sac decompression surgery about a yr ago (they drilled a hole in the bone behind my ear and hollowed out a spot for fluid to fill into basically) because my spells were almost daily. I've had a few spells since the surgery but they are shorter so I manage. I take Valium and zofran at the onset of a spell and it helps. All these fertility meds are screwing things up, not to mention I'm suppose to be on a low sodium diet (500mg/day) but OHSS screwed that up so I'm having daily spells so bad I'm vomiting, I can't sleep much anymore, I literally slept in my closet 2 nights ago because it's closer to the toilet and the spells are so bad now I can't hardly move. My husband has been having to bring me my meds because I can't move when they start and the hit me with no warning. I have seriously been struggling all week, I've felt like shit even when not having a spell. Last night at about 3am I was having another spell in bed I woke my husband up he carried me into the bathroom fed me my meds and I laid on the floor crying my eyes out until it eased up. I can't understand why the Valium isn't working it's always given me relief. My neurologist wants to kill my ear completely so it quits sending signals to my brain but won't until I have a baby. Every appt I had last year I was preg and he doesn't want to do anything while I'm preg or on fertility drugs. So I'm in limbo on a new treatment.

    I woke up this morning and I just felt like shit still, I don't understand, I'm having horrible spells now almost every 8-10 hours. I walked in my bathroom to wash my face and looked at my med bottle ..... My husband has been giving me the wrong fucking medicine. He's giving me Ativan, which we know DOES NOT work. I finally got my Valium out and took one slept all day long and I feel so much better this afternoon.

    What's worse is years ago when we were dating I got in a bind and he wrote me a rx for Valium, but really it was Ativan but I didn't know any difference until a yr later when I was at my Dr and I told him it just wasn't working anymore and I was getting worse. I fired my husband (we were married when I realized it) for ever giving me giving me any meds after that.

    I know it was a mistake and he feels horrible but I seriously want to TP him because I'm the one that's been suffering. I also had to do a drug test yesterday at the RE and I'm sure it's going to show up because I had a bad spell 30 min before my appt and my husband fed me med.
    Fucking bump!!!!

    I want to TP my sister in law. Sunday she texted me that she had a dream I was pregnant with twin boys. WTF? I was so annoyed all morning. Then the next day when I saw her at a family dinner she went on and on about how vivid her dream was and what I was wearing. Plus she swears her dreams come true and any day now we will be pregnant. Don't get my hopes up lady and please don't tell me this. I don't want to get thinking its going to happen when it hasn't yet. Lets just say I had a couple cocktails that night.

    -----------pregnancy mentioned, not mine, lots of ranting-------------


    This was a few days ago, but TP the three pregnant women at the lab who were taking their 1 hour glucose tests while I was taking my THREE hour glucose test. I don't do well with sugar anyway (just not my cup of tea) so drinking the sugar syrup on an empty stomach had me nauseated already WITHOUT their bitching and constant comparison of symptoms. Oh my god, you mean you have morning sickness that makes it hard to drink this glucose? I bet you're the first woman who EVER had that! Wow, you mean you suddenly can't stand coffee? CRAZY! Oh gosh, you are just so fat from all the eating you have been doing? You are the most special pregnant snowflake ever!

    Guess what? Some of us are fat and nauseous and can't drink coffee AND CAN'T GET F-ING PREGNANT EITHER. BE GRATEFUL.

    The only saving grace was getting to cut in line in front of one of them because I had been there longer (per instructions of the staff). She totally looked at me like I should have let her go first because she was pregnant. Yeah, no, go chat with your friends for a bit longer, I'm gonna keep not being pregnant, thanks.

  • Rumbera28 I'm so sorry this happened to you too!  There should be a law or something that they need to notify you if they are going to cancel something. It just stinks.
