I hate Cary

Cary is a nightmare ... of course the clinic is in Cary so I got stuck in traffic this morning trying to get to my US. I don't care if it is one of the top 5 places to live in 2006, driving there sucks.

Anyway, I did finally get there & the US went fine. BW came back fine too. So as scheduled, RE wants me to reduce my Lupron to 5units from 10. Start 10units microdose ovidrel and 150 IUs on my Follistim pen. Plus, start my estring and keep up with the prenatal & BA.

I go back on Monday for more BW & then they might change my dosages. At this point we're only about 2wks away from transfer. Not too shabby!

no biggie

I took my first Lupron shot last night. As expected, this one was no big deal, it's a tiny little needle. This shot doesn't come prefilled like shots I've had before. It came in a tiny little bottle that is my full 3wk supply & you have to draw out the right amt into the syringe each time. It wasn't too complicated, but we've got this huge box of supplies inc. needles, alcohol wipes, a sharps container & various medicines taking up all the space on our bathroom counter plus a few more meds in the fridge. LOL. So far, no side effects though it may be too early to call that one. So I'll be taking just this shot, some baby asprin & prenatal vitamins until next Fri. Well, plus the bc that I'm still finishing up. That'll be done this Fri. Then I'll get another US on 2/2 at the RE office before starting any other shots. I also go back for more acupuncture that Fri.
