Thank you . My ultra sound today showed something so we are just waiting

until the next one to find a heart beat.

I sure am hoping this works for you !!! I know how frightening and

frustrating this must be for you..

I am praying this last metho shot works for you. That does sound

crazy that they want to deliver it to your house. I had my injections

at the emergency room. They were not allowed to administer it at the

dr office. Are you getting the injection tomorrow?

Sorry you are having to go through this. But just think of the

alternative - SURGERY! I hope this will work. You are in my thoughts

and prayers.

Love & hugs,

Hey Pam,

Yes, I'm getting the metho injection tomorrow at 2:30

p.m. Thank goodness I have a very understanding

manager--I've been missing so much work, as I'm sure

many of us have.

The whole deal with delivery to my house is really

agitating me--isn't it funny how this is getting to me

more than the actual ep process? I mean, metho is very

toxic--I can't understand why they'd put it in my

non-medical hands! It's not the same as fertility

drugs that are self-injected, like heparin or the

drugs used for IVF.

When I talked to the dr's office, they said that they

would give me the shot tomorrow out of their stock,

and then I'd bring in the box when I get it to replace

their stock.

DH and I agreed that it's best for me to go in and

just get the shot before bringing up my issues about

this. That way, they injected me, it was ordered by

the doc, and my ep is not at further risk of bursting.

I still haven't placed the order through the mail

house. Maybe I'm overreacting ...

Take care,

Gosh, I'm sorry you need another shot. You are in my thoughts and

prayers that this will do the trick for you. I'll be thinking of you

tomorrow. When will you get your next check to see if it is helping?

Take care!!

Sorry you have to have another shot of Metho... I think it is very weird that

they want you to have the med's Fedex'd to your house. The two times that I

was treated with Metho, the medical people treated it like it was some type

of chemical weapon or something. Thje first time I had to go to the

Chemotherapy lab at the hospital and they used these heavy robes and gloves

and the second time it was done in this sealed room in the ER. Strange, huh?

Well, here's hoping that this is the final chapter in this sad ordeal.

Hi ,

I know what you mean about them treating metho like

it's a " chemical weapon. " That's the same way they

were with me the first time, which is why I think this

is so strange. I had to sign all these releases and

everything.

The woman at the drug place told me that it comes with

syringes and needles and stuff. How do they know I'm

not some psycho who will inject some harmless stranger

(don't worry I'm not). I'm really thinking they're

treating it like a fertility drug, mistakenly so.

Were your two exposures to metho with one or two eps?

I'm sorry--I can't remember. Thanks for writing!

I also had to sign release forms for metho. They had to make up the

injection in the pharmacy based on my weight. They also made me get a

liver and kidney blood test prior to the injections. When will you

have your next HCG level checked?

I was thinking the same thing! They were very careful with the metho. I

did pick it up from the pharmacy though (right next door). Once it was

opened it was as though it was serious stuff. I hope that things get better

for you . I know that now your beta will start dropping fast.
