Belly Fat
I went in for blood work and Ultrasound today. I had 12 follicles on the right and 7 on the left. I heard the Dr. mumble good under his breath. However having done this before I cannot help but be guarded. Even when you think you are doing well tables could turn in an instant. I just got a call about my bloodwork. Estradiol was 472. It was 72 on Sunday. I need to take 150 units of Menopur , 20 units of Lupron in the evening and 225 units of Gonal F and 20 units of Lupron tomorrow morning. It appears we have reduced Menopur from 225 units to 150 and Gonal F from 300 to 225 units. The Dr wants me to go in again tomorrow morning. So I guess I keep marching on on this journey. I have to admit that the injections seem a little painful this time. I am a little looser at the belly and so I thought that the injections would go in smoothly. However several times my DH has tried to push the needle in and had it in just a little and then retracted it because he thought he felt too much resistance...oohhhhhh joy...or not. This happens especially on the sides of my belly so now I have to make sure i look for another injectible space. I know one day we will sit and laugh about this but today ...it was not funny. Peace CT
