So, the other day on the 4th day of Lupron shots, I realized I was doing them wrong. I was doing the shots one inch over from my belly button and three down, instead of three over and one down...I am not worried about this, it is not like I put them in my head or my arm...I promise it all still went in my belly fat :) The funny thing is, once I started doing it in the "right" spot, it hurt more and bled!
Mike finally watched me do a shot on Saturday morning, he was okay until I said, "and then I pinch my fat and (insert stab here)" and Mike was "OKAY, I gotta leave" lol.... Good think I don't mind needles, because we'd not be going through this if he was in charge of my shots!
I have been getting some headaches from the Lupron, but the leave as fast as they come. So far, so good. I stopped BCP's on Sunday (Sat was my last day) and today, right on schedule AF has showed up. So, Thursday is truly my CD3 and that is the day I was already scheduled for my CD3 U/S (Ultrasound) and B/W (Bloodwork). Then I start my big meds on Sunday 2 vials of Menopur and 2 vials of Bravelle and reduce down to .05ml of Lupron.
I had a massage last night (a xmas present from Mike I'd been saving for a good time) and she worked out a huge knot in my back (well, almost, it's still there) so today at my acup appt, she worked on my back as well, and all my stress relieving points.
Mike and I planted an IVF tree this weekend in our front yard. We love it so much. It's a yellow butterflies Magnolia tree, that Mike has taken to start calling "Maggie". It should blossom in the next couple weeks! I'll take pics when it does.
Hugs to all :)
