Doctors Orders
I got the call from my doctor today after my appointment he said that everything looks really good. Since my follicles (eggs) are growing faster than they expected, they have moved our retrieval date up to Wednesday May 29th and our re-implantation date will be Friday June 1st! Yahoo! High Five!! With that he gave me strict instructions, here they are...
Sunday, May 27th
7:00pm 150 units of Menopour---Hooray my last dose, this was the worst med. The needle is really thick so you really have to jab it to get it though the skin.
Monday, May 28th
7:00am 10 units of Lupron
9:30pm HCG shot. It is very important that I take it at 9:30pm no sooner no later. It has to be exactly 36 hours prior to the retrieval.
