IVF and bone scintigraph

M.'s Mom left yesterday. I feel sad for him. I know it helped him to have somebody around, only for him. Somebody to hold his hand. I wish I could help him better.


We made a deciscion. We will do IVF. My Dad is kind enough to help us out with the finances, and loans us whatever treatment will cost. So, I got my first shot today, that will cause my natural hormon production to stop. Starting tomorrow I will have to give myself a shot of hormones that will cause my body to produce eggs...fun stuff.


Before getting my shot I had an appointment for my bone scintigraph to scan my bones for metastastis. It went ok. It's the waiting and the waiting room that really causes me stress. "Patience!!" I tell myself, as I look around into one sad face after the other.


Oh, I had some waiting time between getting my radioactive fluid shot and the actual scan so M. and I walked to the other hospital to get an appointment for the port. I have decided that I will use the chemo port..


I sure am glad to have M. here and that he is patient enough to come and sit in the waiting rooms with me all day!
