Thanks Ginger... Yes you will have a lot of clear discharge during stim...
Hope,
How do u know that u hv killer cells? I wanted a test to be done before i go for intralipid infusion but doc loh told me that the test is not a good reflection. He recommended that i just proceed in case i do hv. If i dun, it does not do any harm either. I hv gone for 2 rounds; one during stim and another after i bfp. He recommends that i do another in 3 weeks after my 2nd round and continue till i pass my 1st tri.
Yes, I will be continuing with it. I failed my last cycle. Kkh dr say it's'implantation issue' which coild be anything....
This bfp i hv started with bleeds. Hence i guess that's why he ask me to continue.
Rest well and be positive too!
Do you feel your arm swell after the infuse?
Tomorrow will be my scan.. Should knowing the number of follicles.. So far no bloating .. Only lost of appetite and listless.. So excited ... Looking forward to tomorrow..

I got mine from OG. I might have some packs left. Can sell to you cheaper if you want. But got to pick up from me on North side. Dunno if u find it convenient a not.
At OG, it cost about $100+ for 30 sachets.

FET no need egg white nor immunocal as there's no egg harvest
Yah! The swell is from my hand upwards when i did it the first time.... if he ask u to do again after u bfp, try elevating yr hand and arm a little. The swell will not be as bad.
Do try and eat lots of protein and water during this period. You will benefit from it especially after yr ER... i retrieved 21 eggs and had no bloat this round. The last cycle, i retrieved 13 only and i was bloated like i was 3 months pregnant!
Good luck on yr scsn and rem to copy down yr follicles sizings.
hehe.. my colleagues will thought I pregnant if I am so bloated.. this 3 weeks is such a tough journey, I have decided to pamper myself with spa massage later. Maybe this weekend I will go and do a pedicure.
KKIVF procedure is so different.. they do not allow you to see the screen? NUH let me see the screen together with the doc.. Will I ask to take blood again on the scan? If they take blood, will they also tell you the E2 level?

I just find out I also have cysts on my left side . Did u feel pain during ur period as normally I have sharp pain during my menses ? In Which condition , Dr recommend to remove ? Will it effect the IVF cycle? Thanks for ur reply ,mesara.
I always had super painful menses due to endometriosis n adenomyosis. My ovarian cysts didnt cause me pain. I had 3 cysts in my right ovary. I did not remove it for my first cycle. Before starting 2nd cycle dr only removed one cyst n others he said difficult to reach n affect reserve. After lap I was on lucrin jab that stopped af for 10 weeks n immediately started 2nd cycle. Dont think its always neccessary to remove cyst as it affects reserve. Ask dr for 2nd opinion before doing surgery.

Hi mesara, I hope Dr will not recommend for removal as I want to start my fresh cycle as soon as possible . but will know only after visit him next week, now Dr asked me to test Thyroid Stimulating Hormone test ,anything to do with IVF or just for cysts ?

I take both immunocal and egg white daily. You can buy ftom OG chinatown of order direct from Fung & Goh. They deliver if u buy 2 boxes. I intend to take all the way till bb's due.

Kailan, spinach, lady fingers, bok choy, salmon, sardines are all high in calcium too.Ya.. But i hardly take broccoli and ikan bilis is high in fats too.. so avoid!.. lol.. k.. i'll start them when i start procedure.. tq
I ate a lot of these from stim till now. I cut down on carbo and soya products though.

Hi, did doc tell u what type of cyst u have? I had endometrosis and did a lap last mth. Waiting to start my 2nd fresh in July.

OMG.. Thats why i dun like milk.. lol
I usually drink a small glass with 4 scoops of ensure milk powder mix with 1 pkt of immunocal.
Have not gain much weight since i started in dec. To top it off, i blend avocado with skim milk twice a week too. Avocado is high in fat too but it is good fats. At the end of the day, you just need to strike a balance in yr diet.
Cut down on carbo and deep fried stuff. Stop all junk food.

Hi second, my gynae was very uncaring type. I didn't get to speak with her at all when I was having this terrible rash. Everything was through the nurse. She just prescribed some steroids for me. On the day of my blood test, she wasn't bothered too much to ask about my condition and simply said I could be allergic to utrogestan. I am not sure but I suspect it could be clomid or the injections I took which are gonal-f and cetrotide. I am not seeing her anymore. I just want my rash to go away and tiao my body in the meantime. I hope you are fine!
