Bye bye PIO!

And the last progesterone intramuscular shot is done! Happy happy day.

One and done...well, done with the first one

The first shot of Lupron is done. I injected myself at about 6:15 this morning. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I didn't even feel the needle but the medication itself burned a bit going in. Tomorrow I might try to warm it in my hands a bit before I inject. IJ was disappointed that he didn't get to watch me do it. But I felt like I needed to face the fear and conquer it by myself. He'll have enough injections to watch once the trigger and Progesterone shots start.

I am not sure if I should be feeling anything from the meds. I keep thinking that I feel dizzy, and now I suddenly have a headache. Perhaps I am trading the fear of needles in for becoming a hypocondriac.

Anticipation is always worse than reality right?

T minus 16 hours until shot #1. I have felt sick to my stomach for 3 days. Women do this all the time - what am I so afraid of. They are insulin needles for goodness sake, thinnest needles there are. I can do this. I CAN DO THIS! Ughhh, I hope I sleep tonight.
