Hi Girls - well, what a couple of days I have had my goodness! So, Monday I went back to the GP with my coughing and sinuses, as suspected sinus infection, antibiotics (safe ones) and off I go. Tuesday morning I wake up after a night of coughing and I have a rotten headache, very nauseous, dizzy, weak, feeling really weird - panicked about a reaction to the antibiotics so DH took me to the local hospital at 10am, I was in such a bad way I seriously thought I was dying at one point. Thankfully I was so bad they fastracked me and took me straight in. The doctor was scrumptious, please remind me not to wear my orange knickers and do my face and hair next time, at the time I did not care however lol. But they tested me, poked me did all sorts gave me loads of painkillers (all the while knowing I was supposed to be going in for collection today, yes today!) - I triggered Monday night. So long story short had to have a CT scan and a lumber puncture (not fun) to rule out meningitis, all clear so they put it down to a sinus migraine. So, 11.30 pm I got let out, after NO food yes NO food ALL day argh! Came home at midnight, got 5 hours sleep and had to get up and be at my clinic's hospital for 6.30 am, I was first on list and went in at 7.45 am yay! I cannot believe I made it, seriously ,nothing and I mean nothing was standing in my way today. So, I had 5 follies, 2 better than last time - was hoping for 1 or 2 more on the Menopur but never mind they were happy with that, triggered Monday night, got the 5 today but unfortunately only 4 were mature, shouldn't say only as it could've been worse I know. So tomorrow I find out fertilization rates (ICSI again so fingers crossed), they will thaw my other 3 embies and testing will be sent off and done Saturday and hopefully praying praying that I have something decent to transfer next Tuesday! EEEK. I am sooooooo nervous about it all, losing them in the thaw, not dividing, not being cleared in testing, not making it to day 6 yada yada so here is the real stuff eh. I am in a bit of pain tonight, moreso than last time, ouchy ovaries and a sore back from the lumber so I will just have to try and convince DH it's real and I have to take it easy, not so simple with a 3.5 year old but I have to. So girls, starting the Crinone tomorrow night, how does it differ from the usual pessaries I was taking in the luteal phase of a natural cycle?
What shall I expect, how do you get through these next days sane, or don't you? Eeeek all these questions! Anyone know the average loss rate with testing? I'm expecting a good half from what I read boo hoo. I'd love to prove them wrong.
