5 Down, 5 to Go January 4, 2006

It appears that I am halfway through my course of birth control pills. Damn, I love this short protocol. It’s a good thing that I don’t have to be on them for 3 or 4 weeks like in previous cycles, because the oh so predictable BCP induced nausea has hit. Fun!

Now, I’m not complaining. (Ok, maybe I am. I do like to whine. And I’m pretty sure I was complaining when I was laying in bed last night feeling like death wishing someone would finally win that never ending football game so I could get some freaking sleep type relief.) Anyway, I think I can handle a few days of nausea. Just knowing that I don’t have to put up with the evils of full strength Lupron this cycle is enough to get me through the ickiness.

I have to admit that I’m ready to bring on the needles. I need an injection fix in the worst way. Nine days and counting until I get to start sticking myself again. Well, that’s assuming that I get the green light at baseline a week from tomorrow. I should know better than to assume anything, though. Hell, I better not have just jinxed myself, because I’m ready to get to the shooting up fun. Those syringes are just calling my name.

You are a sick woman, you know that? :) But I guess the needles signify the chance to try again, and so they are basically HOPE.

I so hope this cycle works for you.

I get the need for a “fix”. I’m afraid I have caught the cycling addiction myself. Best of luck to you!

I know how you feel. I am up to three shots a day and just thrilled with myself. I feel like I am actually doing something. I hope the nausea abates SOON.

I’m glad you get a reprieve from the BCPs. You know that I am so hoping for you.

All my love,

I don’t think jonesing for a shot is that crazy at all. But look who that’s coming from.
