Hopefully this will be a quick update today since I'm tired and want to relax a little before going to bed and then doing it all over again. I went in for my first blood test during stims today. The blood tech is awesome. I've had her twice and don't even feel the needle stick which I didn't think was possible for a blood draw. Unfortunately, my arm has decided to bruise like crazy today even though I held pressure on it immediately afterwards. Boo! Now my left arm is purple and sore. So, I guess I'll be switching back to my right tomorrow which has had blood drawn from it twice in the last week and has just now faded to a nasty yellow color. My poor arms. I keep joking with hubby that I look like a druggie.
My nurse is out today so I stressed all afternoon waiting for a call that didn't come to tell me my injection dosages for tonight. I ended up calling on my way home from work. Stress is not what I need right now but thankfully my nurse will be back in tomorrow. My E2 level was at 120 after only 2 nights of injections so my Gonal F was lowered to 75iu. I go in tomorrow morning for another blood test and my first ultrasound. I'm excited to see how my follicles are progressing. I can definitely feel something going on down there.
Injections were pretty uneventful tonight but I did slightly feel the menopur stick. It wasn't exactly painful I just felt something where I haven't before. I think maybe my left side is just a bit more sensitive since I've had no issues on the right side. I'm already starting to feel a bit like a pin cushion though. Hopefully this week will go by quickly.
