Through the Turnstile

We all know that IVF can be a rollercoaster. I've spent the last two months winding through the gates while waiting in line to get on "the big ride". Today I'm finally going through the turnstile choosing my seat and pulling the bar across my lap that will keep me in the car. Today is my last BCP (forever?). Today is my last day at 10 units of lupron.

Tommorow I drop to 5 units of lupron and wait for my period. Thus far, I have had very few lupron symptoms. I have felt tired, but that is about it. In a way this is good, in a way I am concerned that the lupron is not doing its job. Poor little drug, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Next milestone: Baseline.

wishing you the best this time! I really hope you get through this whole cycle! I bet they will have learned something about your meds and third time will be a charm!

No symptoms of Lupron is probably normal - i did not have nay symptoms of lupron at all.

wishing you the best!

I'm a few rows back on your rolly coaster train. Don't forget to throw your arms up in the air and scream anytime it feels right.
