Hi all,
I've been logging on and reading the forums for some time and have only just joined. I am nearing the end of my first ICSI cycle. I don't know how i'm feeling but i do feel like i know nothing at all about the drugs and treatment despite all the reading i've done.
Taking the Synarel hasn't been too bad, i haven't experienced any side effects and don't mind taking the stuff. When i started the Gonal F injections same thing, once the nerves went, my body just kept on like nothing was happening to it. Then, positively i had my first ultrasound this week and could see all these follicles, something like 8 on the left and 6 on the right. The nurse told me they were looking great in size and number and that my uterus was a great thickness, all this overly positive stuff which got me feely soooooo excited that i might be one of the few 1st timers who gets lucky, but then the BT showed i was low on LH so they started me on low dose Pregnyl yesterday and i just can't stop crying.
My emotions are a wreck, and poor DH is feeling terrible. I go for another ultrasound tomorrow and they're saying probably Tues for egg retrieval. I thought i had things all together and was in such control, but now the cycle has taken over. I assume i am not alone, but noone knows DH and I are doing ICSI so there's noone i can talk to about it.
