My husband and I have always wanted a family. We are unfortunately having fertility problems. This is about my journey and feelings along the way. I am using this as a therapeutic method as well as wanting to hear of anything that might have worked for others!

Yay!!
Great news!! I am having my Gonal shots sent to me by mail and it will only cost NINE DOLLARS!! We added it up and for 20 vials it is over $34,000...Crazy! They are being sent to me Wednesday. I start the dreaded Clomid tomorrow and Femara 2 days after...Crazy week coming up! Hopefully it won't be as bad...Then I have an appt for an egg check on Friday morning and will start my first dose of Gonal. Not sure how many times I will have to take the shot but they are giving me 20 for 5 days...luckily I will get into my Spring Break so if I have any side effects I won't take it out on my kids! =) Read up on the side effects and didn't notice anything bad....anyone else taken it and had any negative side effects?? The worst seems to be my mood and I gain weight from the other 2...At least I think that is a side effect! ha! Anyway, that is my great news update!!

I did not take Gonal F but Follistim is very similar from what I have heard. My main side effect was being super emotional. I am a cryer normally but Jared said I would cry at the drop of a hat. At the time I thought I was completely rational though :-) But overall, I didn't find the side effects too bad at all. Good luck!!
