Anyone want to complain with me????????

Misery loves company....

Between the HCG shot, the Progesterone Suppositories and the possible PMS... I am moody, exhausted, peeing every two seconds, my boobs are killing me, I'm on the verge of tears, I have tons of cramps and I'm completely and utterly DONE!!!

Okay... your turn! LOL

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

I will play.....I'm on Lovenox and Prednisone and I am one moody chic with black and blues all across my stomach. Not to mention the bloat and all around crapiness. Oh and on top of it all I am probably doing it all for nothing this month bc I was basically out before I was ever in this cycle. I just love my body sometimes!!!!

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

Boy, did I need this thread!

Ok, between all the drugs from Dr. B (lovenox, ganirelix, gonal f, prednisone, etc....), losing Schultz a month ago (which is not getting easier for me), I had to take my other dog to the vet yesterday to have her ACL repaired, major surgery. I was a mess when I dropped her off, crying all day between her and Schultz. I had a major melt down last night about him.

On top of that my ovaries are killing me from the gonal f, I am peeing a couple times a night from god knows what drug and I'm just a mess in general.

Thanks for the vent.


Just read the previous post..yes, add all the bruises and injection marks on my abdomen to the list.

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

I'll gladly jump on this bandwagon. I have the regular sore boobs and bloating from the endometrin, but this month I can add really bad gas , indegestion, cramps and to top it all off I woke up with a cold sore this morning.

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

I'll play too. The prednisone is making me eat like a horse, my mouth tastes like metal, I have indigestion, I am a crying, nasty mess, my stomach looks like I was sucker punched by a football team, I am up all night to pee, wake up in a cold sweat and have to do it all over again today. Yikes.....this is getting hard! Hope everyone has a better day today!

I'll limit myself to today's issues following yesterday's methotrexate shot.

My butt hurts! I'm not comfortable sitting or standing and I can't carry my purse on my shoulder because it hits my butt. Between the butt pain, the abdominal pain side effect and my leg muscles being totally out of whack from spending so much time in the stirrups for yesterday's regular and special sonos, I can barely walk. I started to cry this morning, but had to stop because the abdominal pain got worse while crying.

My clothes don't fit -- even my underwear is tight -- and I've been bleeding for the better part of three weeks

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

for everyone!

Between my butt pain from the PIO and my bulging disc that pinches my sciatic nerve... I'm just a bundle of fun here!

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

Although my complaints are not as hormonally intricate as yours are yet...

First off all to all of you!


Well after testing 2 days ago and getting a BFN, I am reluctantly awaiting AF to show tomorrow. We are now finishing month 10 of trying and DH is going for his SA today. So, pending those results, I will probably start Clomid next week. I am insanely moody and ridiculously bloated from PMS, and DH is leaving for a bachelor party in Vegas tomorrow at 6am, from which he will not be back till late Monday night.

Thats, and he just doesn't understand how frustrated and depressing this is for me after 10 mos of BFN's...I just don't get it.

UPDATE: Let me add to the misery. We went to Quest in Syosset today for our SA appt...Armed with the "specimen" and they tell us we have to go to the main lab, that the # the lady gave me to make an appt (automated system) was for the lab location, not the main lab. So we go, only to have the lady make us wait 20 min (on an already 20 min drive there with a timed test) and to have to throw the specimen away because it was past the time and the lady who was supposed to come out and help us, didn't.

SO, Dh did not have his SA today, and I don't know when he will. So it looks like I won't be starting Clomid anytime soon. GREAT.

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

i hear ya!!

between these injections that are making me feel ill.. and the progesterone suppositories that make you leak.. is NOT fun ..
the HCG trigger gives me the worst headaches for some reason.

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

Well I don't really have anything new to complain about, just the regular 4 years and no baby issue.
I wish something was going on over here but my next cycle is still a few months away. I have no idea how we are going to pay for it so I guess I can complain about being self pay since my insurance doesn't cover anything IF related.
I seem to have mood swings a lot...like one minute I feel great and then I feel sad and lonely.
Feels good just to admit that.


for everyone.

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

Everyone keeps telling me about the nasty bruise on my arm from my trigger shot!

I hate the leaky progesterone!!!!

I am a moody biotch (poor DH and DD got the worst of it last night)

I hate when my phone rings because it has been constant bad news about my PG friends and sister!

I am having a hard time remembering to take all my meds at the right time, almost to the point where I am developing an anxiety about it!

And I have 1 week and 2 days until I figure out if this cycle worked!!!!!

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

Ohh...I would love to complain! I'm sick of everyone telling me to RELAX! I'm sick of my mind playing tricks on me during the 2WW even though the doctor said it will be very hard getting a BFP naturally. I'm sick of all of my friends getting pregnant after 2 months of trying and acting like it's no big deal. And finally, I'm just sick of wanted a BFP so bad, and not getting it yet. PHEW. I kind of feel better.

Re: Anyone want to complain with me????????

I would also like to complain that I am sooooo sick of listening to the people that sit near me at work talk about baby stuff. One guy has a newborn son, one woman is expecting and all the others have kids....
I have to listen to everything from my cubicle (how they sleep, why they are crying, how it is the best thing that ever happened to them, what stroller to use, what they are eating now, blah blah blah...).
If they only knew how this made me feel.
