Cycle Day 1

I am super nervous today.  First of all, I got a call from my nurse saying we are ready to start.  I started taking the birth control today (I know that sounds weird, but it is part of the cycle) and we will start taking the Z pak tomorrow probably.  And BTW, never taken birth control before!!! I don't like what people say about it, how it makes them feel and everything, so yikes. Kind of nervous about that. Anywho, a bunch of other tests are going on in the Month of November, but the biggie is my egg retrieval, which is scheduled for 11/21.  Happy Thanksgiving to us!!

Heres why I'm nervous.  My nurse said she will be calling in my meds tomorrow and I should be hearing from the pharmacy in 2-3 business days.  Well, I am having a hard time getting approved for the loan.  I only got approved for $5,000 and my mom's credit score was too low.  So if they call and I can't pay, idk what we will do.  So ya'll, this is my desperate plea, PLEASE look at my fundraiser and donate in any way you can!! All of the money we have collected has gone to TESA. again it is gofundme.com/powellfertilityfundraiser

Also, no call from Dr. Flora about scheduling the TESA.  If we dont hear from them tomorrow I will call.  So to sum it all up, UGH!! I have to take meds that I can't pay for, we have to wait another day for a phone call from the urologists, I have to take pills I have refused to take all of my life, and no one wants to give me a loan! BUT! I refuse to be on a pity party.  I know it will all work out and I really can't believe how far we have come already.  Come on November 21st! 

Sorry for the Debbie Downer post, as you can tell this journey is FULL of ups and downs! lol. So hopefully the next post will be an UP!

Here's a pic of the first round of meds

  1. Girl, don't give up on fighting with the insurance companies! I know exactly how you feel about coming up with the money, and I spent at least 10+ hours on the phone arguing with insurance companies and finding the cheapest pharmacy for my meds, only to end up having them covered. You're completely right in everything though... It WILL work out in the end!
