I have always had synarel and find it always works for me. The main side effects I get are HEADACHES!!! OMG!!! I am prone to them anyway but wowsers, I have had a bad time with them on synarel. I have only had the occasional hot flush, a slightly stuffy nose and no mood swings. I know I will get them on puregon though.... The only other side effect I get is AF is nastier than usual but I usually have a terrible time with her anyway so it wasnt too much of an inconveneince as I have to deal with that every month anyhow! If I had to have lucrin instead it wouldnt bother me, I can cope with needles pretty well. In fact, I always watch when they take my blood etc as I find it facinating.

Me... I rang the clinic and as always only got to leave a message. It was 2.30pm before they got back to me but hooray, my bloods were "perfect". I will be starting puregon tonight and the nurse said to do it around 5pm because some shifts I get home at 5.30pm and other shifts I start work at 5pm so anytime around 5-6pm is fine. WWhhheww! big weight off of my mind as I was wondering how I was going to manage that one.
So, bloods on easter saturday which, thankfully the local clinic will be open so I wont have to do a 265km round trip for that one... but I will for scan and bloods on 13th april and if all goes to plan EPU on Monday 16th with blast transfer on Sat 21st.... We shall see. Hooray, everything is going according to plan so far. Big relief. Makes arranging work so much easier for me and DH. We will probably only have to take one day off and I can arrange my shifts around everything else.
Well, off to fiddle with my pen and get that first dose happening. BG are you starting today too?
