Day one, and I am wondering if Kelly is too jet-lagged to be in charge of my first shot?! It's 10 units of Lupron and I am imagining little boy Kelly with his chemistry set working on a new experiment. He's focused intently on measuring the medicine. I think he has started over 3 times now. Perfectionist!
I also take a Dexamethasone tablet tonight, 0.5 mg. When I figure out what all the drugs are doing to me I will be sure to let you know. This morning we had a training session with Chris, our nurse, and there were 17 meds to learn about! We had just landed at the airport at 7am, coming home from our vacation in Alaska, and it was very hard to focus on the training.
Wow, that's it? Not bad at all. A tiny dollop of blood popped up where Kelly poked me, a bruise about the size of half dollar, and a bump just under the bruise, but overall not bad at all. This may not be as bad as I have been imagining.
We went for the left leg tonight because Left and Lupron both start with L. Sounds like a good plan, right? We've got about a week of just Lupron and then the other fun shots begin. All this is leading up to the making of baby Jane on or near June 1oth. Stay tuned for all the gory details!

Sounds very interesting. They can send a man to the moon but cant come up with a micro pill instead of shots.
