    A akin doing nothing. Valium is a no go. Instead of calming me it sends my heart into hyperdrive. So does phenergan...

    Briggs - what about a more permanent temporary solution - an anti depressant for anxiety?? Zoloft???

    Oxazepam (same type of thing as diazepam) although not great for ttc is still recommended if required over Valium???

    There is another drug (can't remember the name) other than maxalon. Ask your dr to get some reassurance what it is and if it can be used in pregnancy. Like you maxalon has never worked for me and when I was still vomiting an hour after the birth they gave me something else - I think it started with e maybe.

    BG oh no have you tried a natural alternative to Valium? I think the flushes are a side effect and I have heard it can heighten your emotional state so all makes sense. I wish I could give you better advice x

    Great news DDB!

    I'm still very under the weather. Gastro went through the whole house then back to me. I was ok for a few days then got suck again. Appears I may have developed mild Ohss from the clomid. Great. Was on warning from the gp that if I hadn't started drinking enough by today I was going into hospital for iv rehydration. I've been getting slowly better but definitely won't be going down the clomid path again. I'm guessing there may be a link between the response and the gastro but I just can't afford (mentally) to go down this path again. Being incapable if sitting up with dd cis I'm so crook/weak/in pain just isn't worth it. I lost over 10kg in 10 days but have put nearly 1.5kg back on just since new years (hence Ohss being most likely)

    Haven't been on this forum for a little while but I thought I would today. At the tail end of my second cycle. AF isn't too far away. I just wish it wasn't =(

    Well on to another round of clomid. Did anyone have really heavy AF whilst on clomid? I mean I am changing a heavy flow tampon every hour and half... blah I can't leave the house it's ridiculous!

    Hi Ladies, I was hoping I could join in here. I started my first round of Clomid this cycle, currently CD12, and have found that reading through the past post helped me with questions I had.

    DH and I have been TTC for over 2years now and I have been diagnosed with PCOS. My FS is doing this cycle Unmonitored except for a CD21 BT so I'm really flying blind and a little worried it is not working because I have had very few side effects. I really only had a few hot flushes and now am feeling quite bloated like AF is about to appear, FX I'm just about to O and not Very early AF.

    Joeve- I'm not using OPKs because I have heard you get false positives when you have PCOS. I did notice that AF was much heavier for me for 1 day of my cycle while taking the clomid however after 1 really heavy day the rest was lighter than
    Usual.

    Right makes sense. So you just need to listen to your body for o signs or dtd every couple of days to cover all bases! Good luck!

    Perhaps I should try the OPKs and see if they work for me, I guess everyone is different.

    Has anyone had crazy vivid dreams when taking clomid. I don't usually remember my dreams but have had several dreams that I can remember clear as day since taking my last clomid tablet.
