What a weekend! A weekend that began on Thursday, for New Year's Eve. The party I hosted was a success, fun time had by all. 14 friends, lots of meatballs, and even more champers. I got to bed about 2:45am.
New Year's Day my brother and SIL hosted an open house, which was nice. I'll admit, I was feeling a tad fragile, so just lots of water for me. They made a Turducken, which was actually quite good. It seemed like mostly Tur, not much Duck, and seriously - no hen. But it was tasty and entertaining all at the same time!
Then to add insult to my self-inflicted injury, we had a girls' night on Saturday. Drinks, fancy dinner and more drinks. Lots of laughs. Again, I was in bed by about 2:30am. Yikes.
It was my last hurrah, as Sunday began the first of my medications for the new cycle. I began the Estr.ace pills Sunday. Not sure if I'm noticing any side effects yet, 3 pills in, but I slept great last night. But maybe that was multiple 2:30am nights too. I have to go do my first injection of the cycle here in a few minutes. Cetr.otide - another new med for me. Wish me luck.
I finalized all travel plans for the far away clinic - I can't believe I'm there next week. This protocol is fast! I'm so used to being on loopyron or BCPs for sort of the "cycle build-up" phase, and this protocol has none of that. Pills and shots right away, stims within a week of beginning the whole thing. Fast! I keep thinking I have another week, this doesn't start yet - but here it is!

That sounds like a pretty good last hurrah to me! I can't do many of those late nights anymore...I just don't recover like I used to from lack of sleep. And yes, this cycle is going by fast...I can't believe you will be out there next week! That's so exciting! I'm rooting for you and sending you some grow follies, grow vibes!
ReplyDeleteI experienced the same last cycle when I went antagon after 3 lupron protocols. There was no warm up period, just jump right in. It goes very fast and takes you by complete surprise. Hang on, the ride is fast!!! Best of luck to you!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got a last hurrah. Here's hoping you don't get another for at least 9 months!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you had some late nights and party time. Good luck with the stims and what looks like an antagonist cycle. I'll be cheering your ovaries on from afar.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fitting send off into the next (fast) cycle. Good luck with the new meds, safe travels next week & know that someone in Brooklyn's rooting for you!
ReplyDeleteYour weekend sounds superfun! I'm so envious! Very excited for you and your fast ride! Hold on tight! Thinking of you.

Good luck with this cycle! And wow your NY celebrations sounds great! Happy New Year, I hope it is very happy indeed!
ReplyDeleteI thought I commented earlier, but I guess not. Anyway, I'm glad you had such a great time over new years. Sounds like a blast.
