Barnes & Noble does not carry a single book on IVF.
Not one!!! I believe my chin is still on the floor at the customer service
desk. They have a trillion on IBS though, in case you are wondering. And I’ve
learned its best to enuuuuunciate when approaching the subject. **sigh**
Starting the IVF meds one day late is not a deal breaker.
Try telling that to my overly obsessed, frenzied self who failed to check the
box the pharmacy sent until the day of. Yeah, they left step one out completely. And apparently this is the most common
‘emergency’ call my RE office receives after normal business hours. Really? Who woulda thunk it?!
A pharmacist is ALWAYS trying to drum up business, even if
she is sweet, kind and gives you her personal cell # to call 24/7 in the event
that you need ANYTHING. But please do not fail to mention this kindness and generosity and the
fact the she was the only person on the East Coast able to fill above mentioned prescription at 8pm on a moment’s
notice to the doctor who suggested her. I mean I suppose it’s the least I could
do, right. pffttt (eye roll)
How does the universe know when you have spent your last
dime on IVF and then plays mean tricks on you?
And why does it have to make the expensive things break? And how does it know that a nice big kick
while you are down would be to break the A/C when its over 100 degrees for 10
straight. Just HOW?
How come when you finally start to get pumped and ready for
IVF and things start looking up and you feel positive, oh I don’t know, for
the first time EVER, someone announces a pregnancy. And it hurts like a muther.
Even if you have never met this person in real life. **sigh***
How is it that every single individual, medically speaking, that
I have had to deal with regarding our current IVF cycle has earned a gold star
for their impeccable sense of empathy, knowledge, and willingness to cater to my
every need and beckon call EXCEPT the acupuncturist staff. I mean am I wrong or is stress relief their
freakin’ SPECAILTY or did I miss read the cards they have specifically placed
on the desk of the RE office advertising their services to coincide with IVF
cycles. HELLO? Get a personality and be nice, will ya? I promise, it won’t
hurt! And I bet it will do WONDERS for my stress relief. Hmpf…
How on earth is DH going to stick that giant Progesterone
needle in my backside for weeks? I mean just looking at the needle already makes me want
to throw up and we aren’t even close to being there yet. As if I don’t have to
suffer enough already. And don’t even try to
butter me up with the tiny 30G insulin needle I use for the Lupron. I’m still
not happy. The End.
Apparently my therapist was right when she told me I might have to spend the rest of my life stating the obvious to my DH people. I without thinking assumed that when you know i'm currently taking mind numbing, body changing IVF medications and I tell you I feel like crap, you won't assume or ask me if I'm getting a cold. THERE.ARE.NO.WORDS.
