This is my new medication schedule. The first new medication is the estrogen patches. They look like circle stickers that I put on my stomach or thigh. I put them on last night and after about 30 minutes they started to burn a little and I was nauseous and had a headache. We had dinner plans with Michael, Lauren and Savannah and all through dinner I was so uncomfortable.
I don't change the patches until tomorrow. Right now there is a gross film around them, like if I kept a bandaid on for too long. The nurse said that my skin can get irritated so when I put new patches on I need to switch the side or the location of them.
I just need to keep focusing on the end goal here. The headaches and burning is all going to be worth it once I get pregnant.
When I first made my appointment for transfer I emailed Sarah and Christy about missing so much work. I told them that I was going to be out for sure Tues-Thurs (the nurses said I need to be on bed rest) however I was up in the air about missing Friday too. I hate missing so much work and I don't want them to think that I'm taking advantage of the situation. However, I want to do everything I can to make sure this works and in my opinion I need to be in bed. Sarah emailed me back right away and said to take Friday but she wanted to hear what Christy's opinion was. I finally heard back from Christy today and she also told me to take Friday. I need to start writing sub plans now!!
Phoebe: Nope, not knocked up yet.
Monica: It’s only been a couple of hours, so just give it some time.
Phoebe: Yeah, all right. Meanwhile, I’m gonna do whatever I can to help this so, I’m just gonna y’know, lie it your chair, (She climbs into the chair and drapes her feet over the back of the chair.) Y'know? Yeah, good, I’m let gravity y’know, do its job.
