So far I am scheduled for egg retrieval Friday at 8 am. At the appointment today I had 15 follicles that are in the mature range and 2 that are close but not quite there. My estrogen is around 4600 today. They have some concerns because my estrogen is a little high. I am at medium risk for developing OHSS an illness caused from overstimulating the ovaries. When I left the appointment this morning I wasn't for sure that Friday would be the day. I was given a medication to take only if they called me this afternoon. The medication would delay egg retrival. So far no call so I think I am good. This morning and early afternoon was a little tense hoping the phone wouldn't ring.
Tonight at 8pm I take my last two injections! I am excited about that, no more shots.
I am miserable. My back hurts, my ovaries hurt all the time, I'm crampy, moody but still hopeful. Andrew is doing a fabulous job of putting up with me. I couldn't do this without his support and the support of all my family and friends. It really helps knowing that so many people are praying and thinking about you.
