Well, my monitoring appointment went well...it is early in the process but everything looks good so far.  There was the triple stripe on my uterus, and there were a couple follies on each ovary that measured around 9mm (and there were more than a few smaller than that).  I am still waiting on a call to find out about my E2 levels, and then they will tell me when my next monitoring appointment will be.  The nurses best guess was Wednesday.  
Something that I didn't think was a big deal was that there aren't enough needles that came along with the Gonal f.  Each vial of the med came with 5 needles in a kit (box), I knew that there weren't enough needles, but thought I could just pick some up from Walgreen's.  Yea....no.  They are special needles with special measurements!  Aaack!  So after buying the wrong needles at Walgreen's I called the pharmacy I ordered the drugs from and I explained the situation.  First, they sent me the wrong thing (I wanted the multi dose pen which just needs needles but they sent me the multi dose vial which needs a syringe/needle).  Now the pharmacy tells me that the only way I can get that particular needle is to buy another kit.  What???  I am not ordering more drugs when all I need is the syringe/needle.  Ugh.  The vial is 450iu, I use 75iu twice a day, so that would mean I would need at least 6 needles...no clue how the pharmacy messed that up.  So they are sending me 10 more needles (to be safe), but they are insulin needles.  I hope they have the right measurements on them...they go by iu not units...   
Waiting waiting waiting for that call to see when the next appointment is...
