It has Amanda Peet and Dermott Mulrony I don't want to give a lot of info because it WILL ruin it for someone if I give the whole story.

Hey what is everyone's dosage that they gave for Lupron? I am asking because mine on the box is .5ml which is 1/2 a cc which is one of those syringes full that they gave me but the dose on the description of the drug says it should be .2ml. So I have given myself that amount but will call the doc office today to clarify the dosage. I did not think to ask for a copy of the prescription that was written I just went by what the pharmacy put. I was just curious.

You've have to be kidding - most of it is glaxay chocolate!! I promise when it is a more defined shape I will!!

How are you feeling today? Uuumm grapes and strawberries are good for you but keep an eye on that weight loss - hope your drinking lots of water too.....

Stephjim - never seen the film but I love Dermott Mulrony - there is something about him which is yummmyyy - he was in the film with Julia Roberts My Best Friends Wedding!! <she sighs >

Working from home today - but not achieving much so far!!!

went to the Drs this morning as really suffering from heart pulpulations and last night, it suddenley went racing - really shock me up and then I guess I just panicked a lot more so the faster it went! They are going to do a ECG and some bloods just to check it out - do you think it is a pg sympton?? I know we have 50% more blood when we are pg but this was pretty frightening.

Have a great day....... xxx

Nimble:

I had that happen to me too the other day (wed i think!) i was like - wtf is this all about???????

I dont think it a pg symptom (but who am i to know all symptoms lol, i might be wrong) - are u aware of being nervous/stressed about anything? Ask them to keep an eye out on ur thyroid too - when i was getting lots of palpatations (i mean about 5 maybe more attacks a day) they finally did a thyroid test and it showed i had an over active one - i was given medication for 18mths and things seem to have calmed down now.

I do get them every now and again, but not like i had the other day - i put mine down to being stressed over the upcomming iVf - altho i dont think im THAT stressed, im more excited if anything lol ....

I used to suffer too from panic attacks (jeeze im a right off lol) they were horrible and im sure thats what happened to me the other day

Altho VERY frightening at the time, u just need to take deep breaths and calm down (easier said than done i know lol) i dont think there anything wrong with ur heart hun = maybe all the stress u been under the past few mths is finally coming out.

Hopefully they will be able to reasure u at the ECG and ur bloods come back clear - take time out for urself and relax hun - put ur feet up and forget work too - maybe thats putting pressure on u also ....

Have fun ....

your probably right hun (as always) - lots going on both at home and at work - the bloods they are doing are for thyroids so just wait to see what the results are. I'm sure its fine, it's just awful at the time, its like your heart is merrily beating away then it suddenly has a big gap and your sitting there like wtf going on and then it goes again with a big thud !

You're probably both stressed and excited about your up and coming tmt - we never really know how much strain it puts us under - so young lady, you also need to put your feet up and relax too! Lots coming up for you in the next few weeks.

Steph - I started out at 20 units a day and after I began stimming, I cut back to 5 units a day. I don't know what the exchange is with cc's...? Hope this helps??? Good luck and find out soon so you don't overdose (or underdose) yourself!!!

Morning (or afternoon, by now) Nims & Becks -

Nims - hope all goes well with the dr's and the tests!!! I'm glad they got you right in to get it straightened out. Maybe you need a pg massage to relax some!!

Becks - how's things?? When r u starting your cycle? How's the job situtation going??

Morning to everyone else too... I had a few minutes and thought I'd check in really quick. Nothing new here, just having fun poking myself with needles - all kinds. Got 3 shots today and then I go in for acupunture this afternoon. lovin' my needles today.

Yes and because of the hormone changes as well. A lot of people (ok really just women) report this symptom during pregnancy. I'm scared cuz I already had em before I got preggers. Had the complete work up a few years back and they are totally benign for me, but sure when I get em I freak a bit. When I have had surgery I let them know too cuz they have to hook me to a monitor. When I had my tonsils out about 2 and 1/2 years ago I wasn't under very long but they said I had about 10 runs haha....yeh see I'm not a liar

But it is scary especially when you feel em (apparently most people have em but most don't ever feel em....I don't feel em when I exercise but apparently from my tests I get them then too). You can typically convert yourself back by trying to cough deeply...one that kinda rumbles your chest. The other way...and I don't recommend it while preggers but you can ask your doc is to bear down...like you are gonna poop

but like I said that probably isn't the best way while preggers. Ugh, I live with it every day I pray to God it doesn't get worse!

By the way ladies

Steph

Hello guys,
Mia & Steph, missed you in the chat last night. Stephjim and I were there for a bit. How is everyone today? -chriss

stephjim · Post by **stephjim** » Fri Feb 29, 2008 3:16 pm

Ok, we are all entitled to one dumb day right? So I promise that my pharmacy put .5ml sc per day for my dose but Yes I should have checked the paperwork because I was actually supposed to do 10 units instead of 50 units. I called the dr office and clarified with them. Talk about feeling stupid. Anyways they assured me that I will be fine just to do 10 units tomorrow and that is should not affect me stimming next week, that I might just bein a really bad mood today!!! SO DON"T MESS WITH ME!!!

pequele · Post by **pequele** » Fri Feb 29, 2008 3:17 pm

Becky- any more signs of AF girl??? Here is a jig fer ya

Did you ever get to ask them about your spotting?

Well ladies, I'm here freezing my tatas off...it is -1F outside today...before the windchill! Feeling good though...despite having to go to hell, even gotta work the weekend

At least I should finally have some help so it should be bearable. It will also bring me closer to Tuesday for my US! ARGH! I hope I can see the beaner then! So nervous!

Steph

Hi Steph!

Thanks for the jiggy dance - I just rung the hosp and told them i would be late and they said if the ***** doesnt arrive in a fortnight (2 weeks) to ring and they will give me summit to 'bring her on' (she obvisouly said the 'P' word and not ***** lol)

Within 5 mins of comming off the phone to her, my lower belly started her usual games of aching and 'heavy' feeling - so she should be here within at least 4 - 5 days!

I never asked about the spotting, i dont think its serious - to be honest with u i was hoping it was 'implantation bleeding' silly i know, cos i know i will never get pregnant naturally after being snipped about 15 years ago, but hey, it was nice to dream lol .....

Work here is boring the living daylights out of me today - the company software gets switched off at 3pm on the last day of every mth for updates and accounts etc - so i got sod all to do, im sat here like a spare part

<Becky strums her fingers on the desk>

Xxxx
