I'm so tired! Still haven't been mean. Had a little attitude earlier this evening but chad and I both caught it immediately and dismissed it on the meds.
I woke up at 6am to travel over to winter park for a follicle scan and get my blood work done. It's wild how many follicles are growing. I'm used to seeing just one or maybe 2 and those suckers look like a cluster of ripened grapes. I couldn't even count them all. They said the headaches and potentially nausea are going to get worse from here as the follicles continue to grow and I keep injecting the stims. It's all worth it. My mind is very tired but not stressed. I'm calm and centered even though I haven't gotten to exercise in almost a week. It's just that ready feeling. Ill do what it takes and everything they tell me to do.
Anyhoo, the scans and blood work were perfect per my favorite nurse Wendy. You can tell she likes chad and me. When she called she said to tel him hello. She instructed me to start a new shot ganirelix along with the same menopur and a slightly less dose of follistim. The ganirelix is to prevent my LH from surging which would cause premature ovulation. It's amazing how it works. It'll prevent that lh hormone so that all the follicles will catch up to each other with out the biggest ones releasing the egg too soon. Pretty amazing stuff.
I go back on Thursday morning. Dr jaffe will do my exam and ill get instructions from there on what happens next. Ill be taking the trigger shot soon!
