Tuesday was my baseline appointment. This was a preview of my life for the
next two weeks. The appointment
lasted all of fifteen minutes.
Sarah was running the ultrasound machine as Dr. C was out of the office
for the holiday. It took her quite
a bit of maneuvering to find both of my ovaries. Apparently one of them was hiding, hehe. I then headed down for my blood
test.
Sarah called me about four hours later and told me I was
good to start my medications on Saturday.
She also scheduled my next appointment, Tuesday at 7:15am, which is far
too early in my opinion. This will
be my life for the then week or so.
Starting Tuesday I will go in every other day.
I started my Follistim and Menopur on Saturday. So now I get up in the morning and take
my Vitamin D and my Levoxyl, then I inject myself with Follistim. Then at dinner I take my Metformin ER,
prenatal vitamin, and my low-dose aspirin. And before bedtime I inject myself twice, once with Luprion
and once with Menopur. Three shots
a day! My abdomen is starting to
look like a connect the dots page.
I will be making a brief post after every follow-up. These are going to be very short posts
just intended to keep you up to date on the latest in the saga of my developing
follicles.
