Has anyone experienced memory loss when going through IVF? The drugs are mental, not sure if I'm up for doing it again if it doesn't work this time... Feeling out of control... ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

Oh gosh that sounds tough . Are you working or have you got time off?

I felt awful over the weekend but feel not too bad today apart from head scalp hurting.

I'm also trying to drink loads of water- going Accupuncture tmr might again .

I do find that if I go out for a walk it helps clear the head try that .

It will be worth all this pain in the end Hun I'm sure .

The dogs are walked every morning so I agree it does help. I am at work for this cycle as I felt OK last time. I work from home 3 days a week and one day in office so not too bad. I like the distraction this time as was off work for my first cycle. Beginning to think maybe I should of taken time off... Oops. Lets hope I don't forget to do anything too important at work! ๐Ÿ™ˆ

Poor thing, Milly! What a terrible thing you're facing! I also was on stims several times but they didn't bring that discomfort as they do for you :( I'm sorry..

I think they are not mental but this is your emotional state, maybe tiredness.. Sometimes you're so preoccupied with the exaggerations of the process that you can simply lose or mistake days.. I'm sure very soon you'll feel better. Praying for you x
