Hi ladies, I am back on this thread. Forgot password...sigh. Been feeling lonely, like I am the only one in this world going through this.
@Jackzel - I think I may have seen you in SGH. Well, I decided to go with Dr Yu in SGH for IVF and was put on long cycle (why why why?). I started Lucrin injections end Dec and now is on Menopur (tonight is night 8, really cannot wait for this to be over). The Menopur injection stings most time but there were lucky nights when I don’t feel much. After 21 days of Lucrin & 7 nights of Menopur, everytime I smell the alcohol swab, I feel like puking. Sadly, I still feel like puking whenever I think of the injections. Anyone feel the same way?
Went for 1st scan since on Menopur on the 14th & I was told to go on for another 3 nights of Menopur (standard is 10-12 nights, damn). They didn’t take any blood test, are they supposed to?
My follicles seem to be growing, I do not know the sizes though but the nurse said ‘good’. Will be going for 2nd scan this Thur 17Jan and ER & ET expected to be done next week (week of 21st, cross fingers). I am so very terrified of the procedure. I have been feeling down and been teary these past few days. I am afraid that I my body can feel the pain during ER and will jerk and mess up the procedure :-(. I feel a sense of dread and wonder why I have to go through this, why people can easily conceive & I have to ‘suffer’.
Lower abdomen feels like there’s something growing….duh! Sometimes there’s itchiness on skin surface & I go to the toilet more often. Is this normal? Do any of you feel dread? Most ladies here seem to look forward to conceiving but this process makes me feel dread instead.
BTW is this thread for those gg for IVF at SGH in Dec2012/Jan2013? Who else are going this month? We may have bumped into one another
