Augusta Bound!

Since I started the meds, I've been going to the doctor every other day for ultrasounds.  During the ultrasounds, they look at your ovaries and uterus and measure the size of your follicles.  So far, Dr Massey says my follicles measure really well, which means I should produce healthy eggs.  At my age, I don't produce as many eggs as they'd like, but the good news is that mine look healthy and strong :)
I've been injecting myself in the morning with Lupron which overstimulates the body's production of hormones (sweet!) and then at night, I inject the Gonal F (the follicle stimulating hormone) and Menopur (stimulates follicle and egg production).  I'm also taking vitamins, estrogen supplements, a steroid and baby aspirin.  Sheesh.  I actually feel alot better than I did when I was treated in the Czech Republic, possibly because I'm sleeping in my own bed and around familiar surroundings.
Dr Massey initially told us that we would be able to do the egg retrieval this Saturday, but then changed it to Sunday.  At some point, I inject myself with Ovidrel, which causes the eggs to release from the follicles and that's when they do the retrieval.  I have another appointment Friday to determine exactly when we will do this.  Nothing is set in stone as we have to react based upon what my body is doing.  Once it does, then Dan and I head to the Medical College of GA in Augusta where Dr Servy  is located.  It's a 2 1/2 hour drive from Atlanta.  Be thinking of us this weekend.  It's going to be a bumpy ride....one I pray is fruitful!
