“Turn the other cheek” has a whole new meaning now. The circle on my left side that the nurse drew on my bum now has a pretty black and purple bruise filling the entire thing. I do get two days off from IM shots (but I still had to do two subq ones yesterday) but I start back up again tomorrow with PIO. I’ve been in considerable pain ever since day three of Menopur. The stuff works I’ll give you that but not without constant stabbing pain in my ovaries.
I had a follicle check last week in Texas. The u/s was awful. It wasn’t awful in the sense that things didn’t look good. I had a bunch of follies and my lining was good but I had horrific pain during the entire thing. I could actually compare the pain to passing a kidney stone. Yes, it was that bad. It was obviously attributed to the u/s wand pushing up against my ovaries-which are very swollen and tender. The tech wouldn’t tell me how many follies I had nor how big they were. I’m somewhat good at reading a u/s now so I’m guessing that I had around 12ish follies and they were between 14-18mm. 12 isn’t bad. I was just hoping for more. Quality over quantity I guess.
Tomorrow is the egg retrieval. Please pray that everything goes smoothly. I get nervous for just about everything in life and so, I’m nervous for this too. I guess I just want to know how it will all turn out. All the eggs will be fertilized tomorrow as well. Pray that God’s will would be done. My heart’s desire is that every egg will fertilize perfectly, that there will be little fragmentation, and the quality would be good. I’ll know on Thursday how they all turn out. I’ll post pics of them if they give them to me.
