ooh no! stupid me!

Post by Alette »

every mistake you can make as a patient I already made!

but this one!

today I have a scan.

I am not supposed to inject Gonal f.
of course, I know this.

What did I do?
I injected Gonal f.

panic.

I called the nurse.
she only a bit reassured me.
this is only my first scan after starting injecting... maybe it is not a disaster....
we have to see on the scan....

pleasssee... how could I be so stupid!!!??????

and you know, this time I injected 225, all the other attempts only 200....

now I am nervous till the scan...
after lots of IUI, 4 FETs and 5 IVF's

Hi,
I did the same thing in my last cycle. But You don't need to panic. Just as Tracy ahs mentioned, they just want to monitor your progress.
In my case the doctor asked me to take only 3 powders of gonal -f before my HCG was going to be taken. But i (in my own world) accidently mixed 3 powders and only after i injected did I realise that I made a mistake. I kept praying and the next day I was called for ultrasound and by God's grace it was ok. But I will never make this mistake again as it scared me to death just like how you feel now.
Relax and don't worry. Wish you all the best.

Oh Alette, it seems it's a not uncommon thing to do. I accidently carried on with Synerela an extra day and they told me not to worry..the thing is is we ARE such worriers! It's what we do whilst we're waiting....maybe something to do with the letter 'w' ?

How did it go?
hugs
Debra.

:D :D :D

it was okay!

it was only the first real scan!

nothing to worry about (but I really must say, it was sooo stupid, well I will never do this again!!)....

Sunday next scan.

I posted a message on the Dutch board, asking if anybody had some gonal f left.

So kind!

Tonight I am going to collect 450 IE and tomorrow a friend of mine is getting 300 IE.

nb, the first 3 ivf's in Holland are (mostly) paid by the insurance and some women have medicines left...

Lucky me ha! Saves me 460 euro! aroud 300 pounds...

long live black market!!

Hi Alette

I havent been on the board for ages, so you are going through it all again. I havent got any dates but i think i will be starting in a month or so again. All the best this time round, I will keep my fingers crossed when are your proposed EC and ET dates?


Love
