a Crazy Tuesday... cycle day 3.

Work is pretty crazy so I was glad to make it to my RE appointment on-time today at 1:30.
I sooooo enjoyed my lovely female exam... hahaha...
I'm so used to it now it doesn't even bother me much.

The doctor gave me (3) different prescriptions.

*Femara, 2.5 mg, starting cd4 (tomorrow), to take for 5 days.
an HCG shot to get filled so she can give it to me when I come back for my mid-cycle ultrasound... (more about that below)
AND... more prometrium.... sigh... (this isn't a fun drug). Apparently it's supposed to be taken after I ovulate for some reason, but I will have to get more info on that LATER.... I'm just focused on the Femara starting tomorrow. It's supposed to have less side effects than Clomid... so I'm keeping my fingers crosses and hoping I do OK on it.

getting that HCG shot is kinda difficult tho.. my insurance for prescriptions, Caremark, I think has to MAIL it to me... weird.... *shrug* Will try to get more info on that in the next day or 2.

so then.....
My RE hands me this pages of charts.. i'm like... oh, lovely... they are Basal Body Temperature Charts. Yeah, fun... every morning, before I get out of bed, I get to take my temperature and leave the "special" thermometer in my mouth for 3 minutes. *rolling eyes*
I have to do it... I have to bring these charts to all my appointments now. So excited.
(Note the exciting example of how a "chart" looks here in the blog entry)


I will go back on June 12th at 7:30am for a mid-cycle ultrasound to get that SHOT and to see what my eggs are doing, are they maturing? are we close to ovulation?

Lots of other weird stuff happened today.. but that's not for this blog entry...

Cosmic Love

Loving this newer artist (newer to the U.S.) Florence & the Machine. I can't help but get an overwhelming feeling that no matter how bad things are or could get in the future maybe....just maybe everything is going to be alright. I believe this song is trying to hit the listener's spiritual side. my interpretation, others will be different.

my happy ending ladies.

I find myself looking at this journey today and wanting to share with you what happened to me. I was going to edit the hell out of this and delete this entire thing and made a conscious decision not to do so.. why is that?  Well, i know what I went through and the amount of online research I did when given many "terms" used in this blog. The "cd" and "ttc" and "BBT" and "clomid" (likely the most evil drug known to man which my body battled and fought for months), "femara" (also evil, used for cancer and ferility ladies), "prometrium" (if u somehow randomly found this in your journey, please send me a message and I'll tell u the hell prometriun is, but that the drug works) "glucophage" (another evil drug, see a trend, also used for diabetics) "IUI", "endometriosis"  "PCOS" and "pain" "lonely" "sad".   It's 2017. So my world...

It's been 8 weeks and a day...

Time.... I'd never imagined it would end like this. In time, something new will grow. How long will it take to feel it? I don't know how to be something that will grow right now. I hope to see the sunshine, lay down on the ground, stare up at the sky and think about what is next. I didn't think I'd live like this..... Time... growth. My days used to revolve around you... Who had a sick need to give... and take it ALL away. I look back with regret.. Why didn't I see this?? I see it all now. Every little piece. i still remember the look on your face when I woke you... i can still feel your energy.. I don't know how to be something that you'll miss.. It's your smile and love I will forever remember... I hope I am something you will miss.. I hope I made an impact on your beautiful life. I will remember the moments...
