Well we are finally getting closer to start day four our first IVF, so just popped in to say hello to all again. Had our 'Day 21' appt today, picked up all the drugs - phew! A lot more than for OI. Plus I have to take Clexane for my FVL, so that's 3 injections a day! I joked with DH that I'll have to get up at 5am to get them all done ha ha. Since I don't have an AF cycle, I essentially get to chose my start date in Jan 09 - just have to have a BT to check all is baseline and then we pick 'Day 1'.
A hiccup, hopefully minor, is that DH has come down with an infection in his testicle!!! I know - talk about bad timing. He's had it twice before in his life - something to do with being stressed and rundown. Anyway he's on some major antibiotics at the moment. I am worried it will affect his sperm quality. Has anyone experienced something similar? Clinic is going to do a SA when I do my BT before starting, but it will suck if it gets to early Jan and I find out we're delayed further. But we'll see what happens.
Does anyone use ice to numb prior to injections? I'm a little scared about doing 3 at once - I bruise easily and my OI got quite painful in the end...
Hope everyone is going well, whereever you are in your cycle!!
Oh I almost forgot my GOOD news - my PhD thesis was accepted, so now you can call me Dr P - ha ha ha.
