I know, just a little play on words, as today (July 15th), I began giving my self daily shots to stimulate my eggs in preparation for the egg retrieval. I also found out that I'd be visiting Marylu every few days for the next two-three weeks so that they could closely monitor the progress (to make sure we weren't over stimulating the eggs and that they weren't getting too big too fast). I would be giving myself two shots per day for the next two weeks...(Follistim and Menopur).
I also met Dr. Haddad, who will retrieve my eggs when the time comes. I am getting anxious and I know I am in great hands.
*I ended up at HFI for bloodwork and ultrasounds on the following dates: 7/15, 7/18, 7/21, 7/24, 7/25, and 7/26. I also had to go to Quest Diagnostics on 7/25 for more bloodwork (5th time that week) to make sure I didn't have any infectious diseases...don't worry, I'm clean! ;)*
**Marylu and Dr. Haddad discovered that my eggs were doing extremely well and I actually got to cut back on the amounts of Follistim and Menopur I was giving my self each day.**
