Well donee! Were you sedated or under general anesthetic? Have faith and I'm sure everything will work out xxx

in reply toNDE1987

I'm not quite what it was really it was an anethatis (can't spell ) that gave me it. But I heard the word sedation mentioned. I slept through the procedure just woke towards the end. Then had a little nap

Back on the ward, but have felt no pain so far just slept a bit. I had 2?patacetamols just before going down too so might have a couple more. The thing I found worst was them putting the tube in my hand x

Nyko did you have to use the rectal suppository for your EC? x

in reply toTugsgirl

Hiya no I wasn't given those. I have some progesterone pessaries that I started on the day of egg collection and still taking now. 1 a day I think I gave 20 days worth. These I have can either be taken front or back x
