I started my Lupron injections on Friday night and it took us a few minutes to get situated. I even pricked my finger with the needle, but it wasn't so bad. But geez...what an absolute spazz these injections make me. I've heard that some of the side effects could be headaches, hot flashes, loss of appetite, trouble sleeping, etc. I even heard about this so called Lupron fog, but it couldn't happen to me, right? Hahahaha...fat chance! I am a complete and total moron. I don't mean slow to get the joke dumb, I mean dumb like I can't remember what I am talking about, forgetting what I am supposed to do, leaving doors open, putting conditioner in my hair first, like a complete and total airhead dumb. Mr. Lovey Pants is taking complete advantage of me being off my game. I have to admit that not being accountable for much has it's advantages, so I am making the best of it for now. I actually feel more relaxed on this medication than I have in over a year....hmmmmm. It feels pretty good to have the old Amanda back, so I am just going to ride this wave to babyland (I hope!!!).
My nurse called me on Friday to remind me to start the injections that night. She also instructed me to take my last BCP on Valentine's Day and to come in on Thursday, the 17th for monitoring and to start stimming that night. My RE promised me that I would not have my ER on 2/26, as that is my Beans' birthday. I told my nurse that I was very nervous that I could go in on 2/26 anyway because I am a quick responder to the stim meds. She agreed, so I am not going to start stims until a day later, Friday the 18th. I feel so much better about that. The last thing I would ever want to do is miss my faviorite girls' birthday and party.....she deserves the world and Mommy and Daddy wouldn't miss it for anything.
Until next time......xoxoxo
