It's a lower dose of estrogen. I felt better that same day. Once I started the Follistim my headacheds subsided and my mood lifted a bit, too, and I didn't feel as edgy. The Luprolide definitely made me intolerant. I'm right ahead of you with my cycle. I'm cheering for you. Hang in there.2roadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14839763445093612258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6373492995504719892.post-24204349896633746952008-04-25T12:31:00.000-04:002008-04-25T12:31:00.000-04:00Yeah, I think the hormones can turn off the "filte...Yeah, I think the hormones can turn off the "filters" in our brains that prevent us from saying out loud all the things we're thinking. <BR/><BR/>His issues are not about you. Even though he's directing the comments toward you, they come from a place of deep-seated insecurity. Maybe he even "likes you" (yeah, I know it's gross). Sometimes I'm amazed at how poorly men express their feelings. <BR/><BR/>If you can stick up for yourself in a way that will have your management completely 100% behind you, then I don't see anything wrong with using the hormones to your advantage. But if you aren't sure you won't cross the line and say something you'll regret later, then perhaps that's a conversation better saved for another time. <BR/><BR/>Hang in there! Hopefully, The Ass will take a vacation soon so you won't have to deal with him for a while.Pepperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11776234917145422506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6373492995504719892.post-42267332949670569932008-04-25T10:37:00.000-04:002008-04-25T10:37:00.000-04:00I did a lot of meditating using some IVF meditatio...I did a lot of meditating using some IVF meditation tapes that were recommended to me, during my IVF cycle. I found them to be not only helpful to start/end the day, but also I got better at taking that breathing and meditation action during the middle of the day when I got really angry or stress at work. A few minutes of deep breathing, closing your eyes, can really help with the hormonal onslaught. Good luck!Ahuva Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17432567017520114856noreply@blogger.com
