jmamee, have you gone on your trip?
just to share that my boss's boss sms me to ask how's my condition. Saying that everyone in the team is too shy to ask but curious why I am on 2 wks HL. If it's convenient, can share with her and she will only inform my manager. She is a lady, my manager is a guy. I was like "Oh no!"...how shld I reply.
In the end, I just thank them for all their concern and told her that I've informed my manager that it's a women's problem. Then apologised for not in office for so long.
Not sure how she will take it... if I really need to start another cycle, I will not be able to take the HL again. Sigh...

Fou fou, u dnt need to take another 2weeks HL ok! *wink wink*
Howdy jmamee, how long have u jabbed the lucrin till 20feb? Three weeks? I think they might start u on stimulation jabs on 20feb if all goes well. U shd call up KK (if u r with them) or whichever hospital u r with and check with them. They will b able to advise. In the event they really start u on stim, it means u have to jab both lucrin n gonal-f. Gonal-f also not pain de. The needles r fine so don't worry dear

Bbjourney, I tell u what... I feel lah, no offence hor, better dnt take any risk to eat anything u not sure on de... Especially herbal cos herbal belongs to Chinese Abit like tcm, u not sure which n what is good for u or no good for u especially with yr IVF jabs somemore... One of the donts from doctors is do not take tcm meds when jabbing. Even dr jin also wnt prescribe her meds when we r jabbing... So better Mai take risk.... U good girl ok... Tahan tahan Abit.... Ah bo if u r seeing dr jin, u can call her up and ask? It wld b better if the advice comes from a professional
Jmamee,
For your next visit, they will do a bloodtest on E2 level. If E2 is low, then can start gonal-f oredi. From there onwards, you'll need two jabs (lucrin & gonal-f) daily. The gonal-f needles are very fine also, just like Lucrin needles. You said you are not doing the jab urself? Ur hb do for you? If you need to travel alone, I suggest you try to start jabbing urself. Not difficult & not pain one la
Do you know how long will u be travelling? If I m not mistaken, you'll need to go for another scan after 4days of stimulation. Maybe you can call Shamseah to double check so that your trip wont clash with ur scan...

Hope, no need recipe one leh. Just use one chicken or black chicken, remove head, feet, organs and skin. Den chop the chicken and smash the bones, den double boil for 2 hours. After 2 hours, will yield abt 1/2 - 3/4 bowl of essence. Den drink the soup neat while it is hot.
Hope,
U can find the recipe here

Wendy, glad you're feeling better. Really? Can culture immature eggs meh? Think KK immediately discarded them. Sigh... I had 26 eggs retrieved. Abt 5 immature. I wonder if I have PCOS too leh. But i've never been diagnosed. How were you diagnosed? If i recall correctly, you said you have PCOS right?
Luvnhope..yup..i have pcos so tendency of having ohss is high..think you have aso..normally pcos ppl tends to have more follicles..
Yup,normally in pte they will culture coz lesser ppl n they can spent more time..coz in kkh a lot of ppl doing it..so no choice..I think they term it as Ivm if I am not wrong..but again got to see if successful or not too..
Lucky I am better if not got to be hospitalized Liao..haiz..

Bbjourney..4days before my or,my follicle size is ard 17-14.. But follicles size doesn't mean that there are eggs in it..so they also don't know whether will b mature or not.,
Mrs Ching..I don't think so le..immature eggs are not those can't be detected during scan..even the biggest follicle aso could have immature eggs..
My mood now..pain and worried...stomach bloated like 5mths now..all thanks to the swollen ovaries..

Wendy deary, look on the bright side. At least dr Loh bothered to retrieve as many as he can n care bothered to try to cultivate even the immature ones n u dnt need to b hospitalized! All is on the bright side ma. I'm sure everything will turn out ok for u dear... Glad u r feeling better le... Have a good rest n prepare yrself for your babies ok!
