Random Bullets on Life and IVF

• Migraine last night. Not intense, thankfully, but accompanied by nausea which hasn't happened in YEARS. Thankfully one dose of Amerge took care of it.
• This morning I woke up with a crick in my neck. Not sure what that's about (stress much?). The acupuncturist stuck a bunch of needles along the back of my neck and head. It helped a little, but not nearly enough. I'll be making friends with the heating pad tonight.
• Antral follicle count this morning at 10, which might even be a bit low given that the tech could barely see my left ovary (and 7 of those 10 were on the right). I know AFC doesn't translate into good stim, but there's no way to have a good stim without a decent AFC, and this is pretty good for me.
• The coolest thing? I felt my lazy left ovary wake up after acupuncture. Please decide to join the party this time!!
• Microdose lupron tonight. I'm playing by my RE's rules, at least until day 5. Then if things aren't going well, all bets are off.
• The med tech who drew my blood? Absolutely fabulous. She got three vials from the left--the vein that can only be touched about once every six weeks--with no trouble whatsoever. I'll take whatever small good things I can.
• I've deliberately made my class prep "easy" for the next two weeks (other than that whole grading thing). So tonight, when LG decides she's willing to sleep, it's porch meditation followed by an hour of TV. I'm so freaking tired, people, and it's just getting started.
