Day 10: Lazy Left Ovary

Day 10 and not much progress.

We went to the Clinic this morning for a scan which was an absolute nightmare, the nurse had to stop half-way through, it was just too painful! So my right ovary is doing ok, the follicles are growing but still not big enough. The left ovary is still a lazy fecker, doing nothing!

The nurse had to find Dr. Waterstone to consult with him about the best course of action to take.

We came away home and the nurse rang  a few hours later to say that she had consulted with the Dr. and he wants us to increase the level of hormones in the daily injections by 50%, and to return on Monday morning for another scan.

So, 6 o'clock came and Patrick mixed up the hormones for me. The FSH injection was easy enough but the Orgalutran.........well, that needle just didn't want to go in. I tried, then Patrick tried, then I tried again, then Patrick tried again and eventually it went in. That needle is very thick and just horrid...!!!

I'm left with yet another nasty bruise, lots of ovary pain and a fuzzy head, about to watch 'Ice Road Truckers' with Patrick, which, in all honesty has to be the craziest programme ever.............seriously do they not realise they are driving 40 tonne trucks on frozen water...that's just nuts...!!!
