BLAH!!!

So this cycle the lupron has been kicking the you know what out of me!!! The headaches I have been experiencing have been debilitating. Needless to say I have been spending my time in a cool dark room, no sound, no light! It probably hasn't helped that we have been in the last weeks of school (Today was the last!!!) and I have been working with my son trying to help him get his grades up (he did!!!). Also Arizona heat does not help a woman who is experiencing menopausal symptoms as a result of the lupron!!!! I swear one day I am going to be one of those annoying snowbirds that lives down here only in the winter and spring months and live up north for the summer!!!!

However, today is the last day of LUPRON!!!!!!! YEAH!!!! CHEER CLAP!!!!

I started a new drug called G-CSF, of course it is an injection, got to stick with me with more needles. This is an interesting drug and is fairly new to world of IVF. It is not however, a new drug it has been used on cancer patients undergoing chemo as it helps build up their white blood cell count. For fertility uses studies have shown that it helps in building up the uterine lining, aids in implantation, and may help prevent miscarriage. Hey I'm up for it if it results in a healthy pregnancy and baby!!!!  One of the side effects however is bone pain. For me it has not been so much of a pain but more of a constant ache. I feel like a little old lady shuffling around because of my aching bones!!!! Oh well what can I say but all in the name of a baby (or two 2 (;  )

LUPRON BLUES

So today is my second day on the oh so lovely lupron and boy do I already feel it. My nose which had just cleared up from a sinus infection is getting stuffy again, fatigue, restless sleep, hot flashes, and headaches. Oh the joys!!! I go in next Thursday for an ultrasound to make sure everything is nice and quiet in there and then onto more drugs!!! YEAH!!!!!

BAD ME!!!!!!

Wow I am a terrible terrible person!!! I could have sworn that I had posted my results of my last IVF but wow, 2DP4DT was my last post, unacceptable!!! Well that one was a bust, but I had already suspected it!!! Went through the regular emotions: sadness, pity, anger, new hope in the next cycle.

Anyways gearing up for a FET scheduled for June 6, 2012, hoping and praying that this one sticks and decides to hang around for the next several months!!! I have been taking the oh so lovely BCP, many may think that this is no big deal but man do they mess with my emotions. I got into an argument with my GP  financial clerk over my insurance card and thought she was rude and that I was being verbally attacked. I demanded an apology which she refused and then told me to go sit!!!! What am I DOG?!?!?! Yes I did say this to her!!!! Threaten to kick me out of the Dr. office but my wonderful Dr who is also a family friend smoothed it all out.

Tomorrow I get to start my Lupron shots!!! Woot Woot!!!!

Lost 28 pounds in the last few months and ready to get this show on the road!!!!

Lets hope that 2012 is a great year and that 2013 will be even better with a baby or two in my arms!!!!!
