    Huge hugs LA, hope you are managing to relax now.

    WW my skin is a disaster zone too :(

    tea I regret reading your post because I'm headed down injection alley shortly and already had the collywobbles about the cetrotide! Thanks again for the advice earlier. I'm sure it's fine but I am at the obsessed stage.

    LA, what a day! Hope you're at home with your feet up now xx

    Isla, sorry, that was bad timing of me! Hope you've got on OK.

    My right ovary (or something in that area) is really painful now. I'm taking it as a good sign that's something happening but could do without it. My cat is curled up on my lap, keeping the painful bit warm. He's my little nurse :)

    Oh LA what a day!! You can't let it put you in the negative headset to start with, today's events will have changed nothing about your result.
    Rest and rest some more and try try try to get in a positive frame of mind, I know it's so so hard!

    I've had no issues with cetrotide injections and I also did that at the same time as stims, opposite leg to the stim each day no issues.

    Ooh tea it sounds like things are moving! Get puss to look after you :-) I'm covered in bruises but mainly from the PIO shots and the clexane. My things and backside are black!!

    Oh WW lazy follies!! Hopefully you'll get some ore to catch up ready for the scan on Wednesday. Good luck!!

    7dp3dt here and well not much to say!! Just waiting and waiting I guess!! Got a crappy cold with a chesty cough so fee lousy. Fed up of it now

    Oh no, that's rubbish timing with your cold Lisa!

    Mistakenly did both cetrotide and menopur on the same side tonight so will remember to do opposites tomorrow. Man that cetrotide STINGS tho! No wonder the nurse told me not to phone thinking I was having an allergic reaction. Nippy!

    Isla - I had totally forgotten that it stings, was a big shock last night! I've clearly blanked a lot of this out lol.

    PM - I think having the cat is going to make all the difference to this cycle (we only got him last year). He's my therapy :) Ours is totally in charge of the house and sleeps wherever he wants - we usually wake up clinging to the edges of the bed while the cat is stretched out in the middle.

    Feeling sorry for myself this morning. Have a banging headache (couldn't even face using my electric toothbrush) and am far too hot. Am usually cold so not used to this. Generally feeling knackered, cr.appy and v much in need of a day in bed. Sadly I have a day at work instead. Roll on hometime.

    Hope everyone's getting on ok x.

    Tea I hope your feeling better soon and home time comes around soon for you. Tmi but pretty sure I'm getting thrush, again. I think its spending months on hormones and feel very crampy so waiting for the bleeding to start.
  • Tea , good vibes, Isla ,frozen and WW - hope that all of your cycles are going well.

    Lisa - sticky vibes your way.

    Afm - thanks to all the ladies for the wishes. Had a good rest yesterday it's a new day and I m feeling better than yesterday. I don't remember who asked but I was able to reach to acupuncture yesterday after ET. I took 2 days off work so resting at home currently.

    Did any of had lower back ache after ET?
