CD 5 Stims Day 3

Ohmygod my arms itch so much!!! I did a LIT treatment yesterday, a double dose, and for the next few days I will pay dearly for this anti-J vaccination. I am supposed to start taking my dexamethasone ("dex") tomorrow but I'm a bit concerned that taking steroids this short after a LIT treatment only because it might impede my body's reaction to the evil "J" lymphocytes. I actually WANT a good reaction because it'll indicate that my immune system is mounting it's defense, making antibodies that will protect my embryos should they be inclined to try to implant.

Speaking of implantation, I started taking my femara today. It's a drug that I haven't taken before, one that's a bit controversial, and it is supposed to help with implantation. A lot of women swear by it and it's gotten a few people I know pregnant after a string of failures without.

So tomorrow it's "dex" and the addition of lovenox. I'll do a single lovenox injection in the AM and with a BFP I'll increase to 2. The risks of a subchorionic hemorrhage (SCH) are increased with lovenox, but diligent monitoring by my RE and OB/GYN should catch one in time to cease lovenox temporarily until it disappears.
