On Monday I had a call from my clinic asking when I was going to schedule the remainder of my bloodwork and my HSN and my husband’s “test” (ahem) so that they could order my injectible medications. I ended up talking to the nurse yesterday and it turns out that I don’t have to have those things completed before they order the meds, I just have to have them scheduled. So, supposedly they were placing the order for my meds yesterday. They order them from this pharmacy in Chicago that they call a “fertility depot” and they have HGH in stock and apparently there is a shortage of that in this country. Who knew?
So, the meds will be delivered to my home sometime in the next couple of weeks. This little tiny thing that is likely to cause me a great deal of physical pain makes me happy, which I find a little bewildering. I am pleased with each new little bit of progress in the goal, and having the medications in my posession soon seems like progress. I will start the Lupron injections on New Years Eve. Is that a fortuitous day to start? Once again I find myself being very superstitious. 2007 was not a good year for me health and fertility-wise. Maybe I should be starting this one day later in 2008? I am hopeful that 2008 will be a much better year for me in this regard. But I am going to try to push that to the back of my mind.
On December 31 this year I will be with my college girlfriends and their husbands/children/significant others at our Party Crib. So the first and second days of my injections I will be with a big-ish group of people. Hopefully it doesn’t throw my emotions for too much of a loop… Especially with two new adorable babies there. I don’t want to be sobbing or angry during new years. I just have to hope that the meds don’t make me too crazy.
