Thanks Vic for the list

Kerbear dont worry I'm confused most of the times LMAO

Myturn - THANK YOU! that was SO helpful re the synarel and the fact that I'll be off the pill once the puregon starts YAY atleast its one less thing to think about taking. Thing is re the timings for synarel, at the moment its pretty hectic at work and "some" days I might have to stay back and since its about 1-1.5 hours drive (with bad traffic) to work each way not sure I'd make it intime. I might be safe at the time I need to take it though cos its not the busiest time of the month at work Sorry for the long explanation. I will be nervous taking it the first time cos I've never used anything like that before (I guess it'd be easier for people that are asthmatic and have used am inhaler). So you can drink straight after you take it? water or o.j that is LOL

I was a bit freaked out the first time I took the synarel, so you are 'not alone'. lol. I am on holidays at the moment, so I have been taking it at 9am, and 9pm (roughly, the nurse said if it was a little late sometimes it didn't matter that much...) I am not asthmatic, but it is nothing like taking ventolin (which I have taken). If you've never taken a nasal spray then I can't explain what it will be like. It's okay, just like snorting up a tiny bit of water... so it feels weird.. but it's the taste 5 minutes later down the back of your throat that's weird.
I was also told that if I sneeze in the first 5 - 10 minute I need to do it again - I feel like sneezing sometimes, but I hold it off but drinking lots of water (I think OJ would be fine!!) and just 'not letting myself' sneeze. lol... somehow! TBH the nurses never said anything about drinking or not drinking, I assume it's okay! Hopefully, or else this has all been a waste!!!

I think you should be able to take it to work with you, without it being an issue. Just leave it in the box, upright in your bag - leave it in the car if it's not too hot, then just go out to the car... have a snort... and come back to work. be a bit like you are a secret druggie! (..... just realised you probably catch the train or something anyway.... so maybe ignore me.....)
as long as it is kept upright, and at room temperature you should be fine. I was told not to shake it up or anything, but I think if you just keep it in the corner of your handbag you should be fine.

I'm glad it helped

my turn - thanks SO much I AM def going to feel like a total junkie LOL shouldnt laugh at that but you know what I mean. I do drive in to work so it will be cool to leave it in my car or in my bag and then go to the bathroom or something. Either way I'll figure something out LOL will def have something to drink after cos I know what you mean re the after taste. I had a nasal spray when I was very little for a bad cold I had and it was yuk from what I remember so if its anything like that I will be prepared and not sneeze! LOL

kerbear - hope you got some rest hun and it made you feel better

Panadol for all! LOL
Miss B hope your migranes have left for good! Nothing worse, I can see me getting them (I usually get them when AF is about to arrive) but with all these hormone medication I can imagine I'll be suffering but like my nurse said, no need to suffer just pop even more tablets LMAO! Long story short take care of yourself and I hope they go away

Wow so much is happening in here. A sign of a great supportive community. Thanks girls, I'm really appreciating this thread. Keeping me sane.

Thanks heaps for the list Vic. Can you add me too sweet. I have no idea what CD it is for me cause I've been on Zoladex for several months and so it is also been months since I've had AF. Today is day three of gonal-f injections. I'm having ICSI. First blood test tomorrow morning to see how I've been responding to the meds and first ultrascan on fri (20th). So am guess EPU will be at the end of Jan or early Feb.
