I gave myself my first injection without Hubby and it went just fine. Whew. Tomorrow night, I'll be home and he can take over again. After seeing what some of you have been going through lately, it seems silly to get worked up over one little sub-cutaneous gonal f injection. Anyway, I stayed relaxed, and wasn't nearly as bad as I thought.
I am mostly managing to have a the time with the girls, except for the fact that I have for down with a ridiculous cold. I have a sore throat, a splitting headache and the chills! At one point today during the tour, I had to go outside and lie in the van for fear of passing out. And now, while my companions are out enjoying dinner, I'm lying in bed alternating between shivering and sweating, with a bandaid on my thigh. At least knowing I am alone in the house made the shot easier. My dose this time is 150, up from 112.5. I'm taking that as a good sign. Anything that is a change I consider progress.
I'm sending positive energy to all you ladies out there, especially Christa and Bridgett. iPhone commenting is not the easiest, but I'm thinking of you.
I'm glad your first injection went well. It gets easier and easier (eventually!).
