Welcome Kells, best of luck with your appointments and 2nd IVF, i am on my 2nd stimulated cycle, but i haven't actually made it to egg collection yet!! First cycle got cancelled and then i had to have a month off and now i'm off to collect my FSH from Doc tomorrow to start stimulation...
I know what you mean Janee i get so close to sneezing the Synarel all out, or i'll think that it has all gone down the back of my throat and so i get on with it and a big drip comes out my nose, then i'm like what do i do with that???
Jane the 123 Jab works a treat, my doctor gives me Gonal-F and it comes in a box with all the syringes and stuff, so i didnt get the pen...i asked about it but he said the syringes are just as good?? Same with the trigger injection although that came in two little glass vials and i had a big drawing up needle and then i had to change over to a smaller needle once it was drawn up and jab that in my thigh...that was scarey, but luckily i work at a children's hospital and i live just around the corner from work and so i went and got verbal instructions and supervision by one of the paediatricians, i did ask for her to do it but she said "NO you have to learn Megan" so i braved it and it was a cinch...here is her secret to a painless intramuscular injection...
Take an alcowipe and rub vigorously and quite hard on the spot you are going to inject and then make sure the needle will go in at 90 degrees, jab really fast and inject while keeping the alcowipe in the other hand, then take it out quickly and immediately rub really hard with the alcowipe again...worked for me...twice!!
Cherie i hope everything is going well for you. Later Girls!!
