Hot Flashes?

December 3, 2006 — 7:57 am

Well I believe I am having what they call hot flashes. Thing is, I don’t know if I can blame it square only the clomid or not – I’ve been having similar episodes for months now. Months and months. I stopped paying attention to them really because they seem to come so frequently and randomly. But it’s usually about once a night I wake up sweating. Yuck. But last night laying in bed, drifting off to sleep, suddenly started burning up. It feels like waves of heat. So I push off the blankets and wait for it to subside, then slowly inch the blankets back up over me as I get cold again. Then I fall asleep. It can be rather annoying though, since I can only sleep if I’m at the right (cool) temperture.

I’m still feeling nervous about the whole IUI, though not because of the IUI itself. I keep thinking, “It was monday I went in right? Day 12? What if it was Day 10, OMG!” or, “They never mentioned a specific time. Do I just go in the morning? Or maybe they forgot to give me an appointment! Should I call??” Sigh. My panicky nature is driving me crazy.

I decided to not call the nurses on friday, and instead just wait for the monday ultrasound to ask what my blood test numbers were. I figured it wasn’t important enough to call when I was going in just a few days. Of course that decision could have been influenced by my severe dislike of using the phone. :rolleyes: I need to make up a list of questions to ask so I don’t forget.
