Day 7 Stim Update

I went back to see Dr. B on Saturday (Day 7 of Stim shots) for another u/s & blood work.  Due to it being the weekend, the regular "awesome" blood getter lady wasn't there, so of coarse, getting my blood was a struggle.  It took this lady lots of sticks, and both arms before she got it. She told me that my veins are the smallest she has ever seen...Thanks Mom & Dad for this awesome pass me down feature!

Dr. B did my u/s and found 10-11 good sized follicles in the right ovary and only 1 in the left :(  She said that sometimes this happens, where on side just gives up while the other side works really hard.  She didn't seem too concerned, so I'm trying not to worry about it, although I would really love for Ms. Left Ovary to wake it up & to realize it's game time!!! I still have hope for a comeback on the left!!! The more follicles we have...the better our chances for a successful cycle!

We are to keep taking the follistim shots, the pills, & are to add the ganirelex shot (this one will keep me from ovulating).  Return back to the doctor Monday morning!
