Lupron is a drug forged from the depths of hell by satan and his minions...

...not that I believe in that stuff. So if you've been following my posts recently you'll have noticed my rants about headaches and the like. Well I landed myself in an urgent care center again today, narrowly escaping a middle of the night trip to the ER. I have been having headaches varying from pain in the ass to migraine strength since 8/1 now. Yesterday I developed yet another on my trip to Saratoga Springs, NY but alas, I ran out of immitrex so I started poppin Excedrine Migraine. It took the edge off but after 5 pills in 5 hours I still felt pretty awful. I did get to go to the rodeo though!!! It was so much fun:

My favorite is the bull riding and bareback horse riding. 

Afterwards I took my shot 'o  Lupron, birth control pill, 2 metformin, and a couple of excedrine. I woke up around 3am in excruciating pain!!!! I almost asked my husband to take me to the ER-which is bad for me. Finally around 6am I was able to fall asleep for a few hours. Definitely did not really improve. I was crying pretty much all day (so unlike me) so finally we decided to try out the Saratoga hospital urgent care center. I have to give a shout out because they were SO nice!!! Some shots from my "stay":

I still am at a 4 or 5 but definitely feel better. I also got my fertility doc to prescribe a steroid pack and allow me to stop taking my birth control (after he consulted with a neuro dr). So now I'm just relaxing and hoping to get rid of this once and for all!!  I asked a friend who did IVF if she got sick on Lupron and she said oh yes!! Terrible headaches. I know this is all for a good cause but c'mon man!! I can't live like this. I just keep telling myself that hopefully I can get pregnant after all of this and it will be for a good reason. :-)
