Day 24 – so far, so easy.

Four shots of Lupron are behind me, 9 to go (and hopefully on to stimming from there!).
I have to admit, so far, so easy.
My life isn’t any different from pre-Lupron. All there is, is a tiny little shot I hardly feel each day. It probably brings more excitement than anxiety – here we are doing this big thing for “the cause”!

No side effects to speak of so far (knock on wood!) and I am still jumping around like a gazelle on my step aerobics – no sweat. (well, lots of sweat, but none of it emotional).

I know that things will be kicked up a notch during stimming phase and monitoring, then really go high gear when retrieval draws near. So I guess I should savor the easy Lupron life now. I am trying to think of everything I can do now to make my life easier later. There’s certainly tons of things to do – forms to fill, meds to order, books to prepare for reading and pampering myself… I guess this Lupron phase is a good time to knock everything out of the way for when it all really starts coming at me big time.

I like the Lupron phase. Why do I have the feeling I will look back on it fondly…
