Will my buttocks ever be the same, I ask you?
Possibly not.
One of the plethora of crappy things about miscarriage after IVF/FET is that you end up taking the PIO shots for longer than normal.
And if your blessed husband hits a vein, which I totally suspect mine repeatedly did, well... it's a bad thing.
Sometimes my bum is numb. Sometimes it's itchy. Both in the same general PIO shot giving area.
Am thinking of ditching the shot this time and doing the dreadful suppositories.
Seriously though, has anyone ever been through this????? Have you heard any stories? Please tell me it goes away.
I keep hoping it'll go away.

Meanwhile back at the ranch...
My To Do List:
1. Rob bank
2. Take Cipro (gag, puke, hurl)
3. GYN Yearly Appointment (which I'd rescheduled from June) Totally dreading explaining the sob story of the events in my uterus of the past year.
4. Saline Sonogram.
5. Insert Metrogel Goo in lady business
At my center if you camp out there and take freakingforever to get knockeded up, you have to go through the antibiotics/uterine abnormalities check again.
BTW, this is my 200th post!

Happy 200th post!!! After my 1st IVF, I had numbness and tingling that ran down the side of my butt and into my thighs...it went away after a few months...and then came back after IVF2 and was not so bad after IVF3. I have no lingering side effects.
Happy 200th!! BTW, once I stopped the PIO, I have been on twice-a-day suppositories for about 6 weeks. Yes, they are messy, but I don't mind them that much. I'd take them over shots anytime.
happy 200th post. Not so happy on the center anniversary.
Happy 200th post! So glad to see you posting, I love hearing from you.
Happy 200th! No idea on the PIO as I was a suppository girl.
Good luck with that bank job. (-;
I'll take the messy suppository over the painful bruising nerve damage of PIO injections any day. Yes, you'll need industrial size boxes of panty-liners, but they don't make you cry when you sit down.
Yay for 200 posts!
Happy 200th post, girl! You've been through so much, but seem to always keep a sense of humor throughout it all. I admire you for that and SO ENJOY your blog.
Bless your heart for having to take the PIO shots longer than normal. I chose shots over suppositories every time, but I also didn't have to be on them as long as you. If Alex ever hit a vein, it would give me the tingling and numbness. I actually still have some numbness in my left side/booty cheek.
((hugs)) to you!!
Wow, 200 posts! You are a blogging queen! :)
Sorry about the shots. I'm starting to get really tired of the shots, too. *sigh*
Have you tried the suppositories? Most doctors say now that they work just was well.
Anyway...I saw it as one of the only bright points in the miscarriage that I got to stop taking them (though I would have so preferred making it to 12 weeks and stopping)...
Happy 200th! I've had the numb butt for weeks - weirdest feeling but it did go away. I complained to my clinic after I was bruising up and they put me on suppositories & I was relieved, messy but no pain.
Congrats on your 200th post! Exciting.
Sorry about the pain in your butt though. Those PIO shots are EVIL!
Congrats on the 200th post!
I did have some nerve damage from PIO shots. It sounds like that might be what you have too. It really varies about what will happen, some people have the odd sensations go away over a few weeks or months, or some have them lessen but not go away. Mine lessened, but as of 5 months later, I still have a patch of numbness and odd itchy, tingling when I touch the area. More IVF fun no one ever told you about!
