Started spotting last night, only six days since O. You'd think with the fact that I spotted both this cycle and last cycle from AF to O, I wouldn't have any until AF again, but nope. ANNOYING. So, now I am not sure when AF will arrive. I was thinking Monday-ish, but who the heck knows. Would be nice if I had a normal cycle.
Janay-- Thanks for asking about my kitty! He is much better. Turns out that they are now pretty sure he has asthma. We are going to have to start giving him twice-daily inhaler treatments. That should be loads of fun! Especially since we have to wait 15 minutes between the one puff of two different medicines that he will get twice a day. This will be me, but with cat claws sticking out of me instead of fire:
I will be doingn an antagon protocol again, but back to split doses, and she is increasing my initial dosage. My E2 didn't get very high last time, so they boosted my LP with hCG, and that brought on mild OHSS. That was miserable. Plus, I only got five eggs last time, as opposed to 10 my first antagon (well, first completed at all) cycle. I got none on my even-more endo-encased left side last time. So, hopefully I will get more eggs this time, even if none from my left again, which is likely, and my E2 will be higher and I won't need hCG. As for the laparotomy, we won't do that until later. She just told me that when I decide that the endo pain is too much and wnat to go in for more surgery, this will most likely be what they need to do. I don't need to do surgery before another IVF, at least at this point. If this goes on much longer, though, it might be the case. I haven't done the lupron depot. I whimped out because I can't stand hot flashes!
Brie-- I am a bit detached right now, actually. I am hopeful, but since I am not embroiled in it atm, I am not thinking about it a whole lot yet. Self-preservation, I guess. If I could lose some of this dang weight, though, I would be happier. I have been exercising again and watching what I eat, but I am actually GAINING! I have no idea what is going on right now. I am trying to just stick with it right now. Good for you for getting yoursefl going! I can certainly understand not wanting to do anything but take it very easy during your prg!
Jen-- Thank goodnes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
