I had my final IVF consultation today. It took me over an hour to get to the hospital in Highland Park. My nurse Sabrina was super nice, very informative, professional and right on top of things. I was very impressed with the way she explained everything to me. I'm on the luteal lupron protocol, I'm currently on BCP and starting lupron on Saturday, December 19. Need to keep taking bcp until 12/24 (last pill), continue lupron until 1/1/10, with the ultrasound and blood work on 12/30. Starting 1/2/10 will start follistim/menopour/lupron combo injectible for 3 days (2,3,4 of Jan) with another usg and blood work on 1/5/10. Egg retrieval is planned for around 1/13 - all depending on how my messed up body will respond to the meds. Egg transfer either on day 3 or 5, of course depending on quality of the egg and embrios. They are planning to do ICSI and assisted hatching as well ( and my insurance covers it too.) Lets keep our fingers crossed there is no major drama and this cycle is succesfull.
I am so scared and overwhelmed that I can't stop thinking about it. I wonder if I will fall asleep tonight?
Maybe a glass of wine could help.
Goodnight!
