It Didn't Work
Bummer.I've been on heavy doses of different hormones for 12 weeks straight. For the IUI, I did 2 weeks on Bravelle, then 2 on Prometrium and Ovidrel; then I immediately went into the IVF with 3 weeks on birth control pills, 2 1/2 weeks on Bravelle, Menopur, and Lupron, and 2 1/2 on Prometrium and Ovidrel.
I'm sure the effect of the hormones is reponsible for the scary thoughts and feelings I've been having. It's more than just disappointment over not being able to get pregnant. I'm holding out hope that these thoughts and feelings go away once the hormones are out of my system, without further need for chemical intervention. I miss my old self, and I think Mini-Wheat and Mr. Wheat do too.

So sorry.
Hope you're okay and thinking of you.
So sorry to hear, K.
Sending you many virtual hugs and kisses.
Oh hell.
I'm sorry. I hope the hormones fade soon so you can feel better. I know first hand from endo hormone treatment (which is very minimal compared to what you've been on) that those things are serious. I nearly punched a medical receptionist while on a particularly high and potent dose. Also on more than one occasion, I had to fight the urge to drive my car into a tree when I was feeling bad, oh like when I was on the way home from a doctor's appointment.
I'm wishing you peaceful, doctor-free days while the hormones ebb.
So sorry K.
Sending you hugs.
I hope you are back to your sparkley self soon.

Sorry K, that anonymous comment was me. I do not know what happened. Dang Blogger!
Dang! That really blows and I am so sorry. :-(
The images you post always paint such a story.
This one shows not only the physical "result" but also depicts the emotional distress felt you and even by all of us who so desperately wanted this to work.
We love you! Sending many cyber hugs to you and to Mr. Wheat and Mini Wheat.
love, KC
