Day 4 of Stimulating Meds

The shots seemed a little easier for me today. I told myself that I was just going to do it and stop making such a big deal over it. It helped. I have just been making it hard on myself and it was making it really difficult, but today I put my foot down! Here were my meds for today:

• Lupron 5 units AM
• Heparin 5000 units twice a day
• Gonal F 150 units PM (change in dose from 375 units for 2 previous days)
• Menopur 1 vial PM

I was able to mix the Gonal-F and the Menopur into one shot so that was one less shot.

This morning I saw the acupuncturist and she put the needles on my back. That is such a sensitive area. I just jump even before she puts the needle in. I told her it's probably because I can't see what she's doing, besides that it's a very sensitive are. She also put the vibrating wires and I listened to my meditation CD as I lied on my belly. I was very anxious the entire time and I know it was because of the place the needles were in. She told me to go home and do nothing but relax. It was impossible today since I had to take my truck to get fixed. It was in the shop for the longest time. I think it was about 3 1/2 hours. Luckily, one of my aunts lives next to the shop I took it to so I called her and she went to pick me up.

Other than that, there is not much else going on. Tomorrow is my IVIG so I will need to be at my RE's office at 8:00 am. My mom will be coming with me since I do not want DH to miss too many days. I'd rather him take off on the ER and ET.
