h.e.l.l.O
Ultrasound was supposed to be done on cycle day 13 (12.4.2016), somehow when the doc checked, I had only 2 small eggs at 7 and 10mm. Doc was surprised because my lining was thick and she expected a bigger egg, then she saw an area that possibly indicated that I have ovulated earlier than expected **cries bucket**
So she said she could not proceed with the IUI. This was on Tuesday (12/4/). And so I did my actemra on Thursday (14/4) and now on low dose of steroids (prednisone) for 8 days. Cycle wise, I am on day 21 today. Feeling sooo much better this week from the infusion and steroids. Not a fan of steroids but only people with chronic disease will understand the need to take it to sustain. This is my second time taking it after having had to live with RA for more than 10 years. I was before under a lot of pain, always always tired like I am about to faint. Lack of sleep due to severe pain. Pain around knees, wrist, back-pain, rib cage area when breathing. It was a nightmare and I do not see the point of trying to endure it as it appears that they are not going anywhere... I dunno how I managed to drag my 2 feet to go to work everyday. Doc convinced me that if I don't get healthy than it will be difficult to get pregnant. While I was thinking that I want to be drug free when trying for a baby but its difficult because we cannot really timed things. We gave a good almost 16 weeks of no medication whatsoever and tried naturally with no luck. We did HSG, then recently clomid in preparation with IUI. Luck was just not on our side... It just has to happen when God intend it to happen. And God does not want us to give up. He gives us challenge after challenge because He loves us and wants us to always remember and praise Him, for He is the almighty.
Is there possibility of getting pregnant this month? Tough question. We only tried like a couple of time after my period. And because I was not feeling well, it is just hard to get into the mood.
I hope that hubby and I will continue to be strong. That we don't give up hope. Busy body aunties and uncles.. You have no idea what we go through in our lives, so shuhh shuhh
