Okay, saying I'm allergic to injections is akin to coming up with some lame excuse as to why I didn't do my homework, paid a bill late, won't eat the fish, or forgot someone's birthday.
BUT, I am allergic to progesterone in sesame oil and progesterone in olive oil. Any movement above a slow, plodding walk causes me to wince and cry out like a sissy. I'll give you a guess as to how many other "oils" I want to try right now.
The great news is that last year a new medication was approved that can now replace my progesterone injections---Endometrin.
When the nurse told me about it, I was like, "Are you sure? Because you guys didn't mention anything about this the last time we did this." And, in some weird way, it feels more medically, well, advanced to be shooting up with the medicine instead of inserting it like you would a tampon. (I did go to the suppositories for IVF 2006, but that was well after the pregnancy was established.---And these are pills, not the traditional suppositories--though they are inserted in a like manner.)
But, SERIOUSLY, from where I sit, this stuff looks great! I am looking forward to a painfree derriere.
