Hey Yael! 19 eggs sounds great!!! You'll probably end up with a few more.
But really, I felt awful with 25. You don't want too many. And if you
hyperstimulate, the responsible thing to do is freeze all, and do a FET
the
next month... again, this wastes time and FETs aren't as successful as
fresh
transfers, but still better than an IUI.
90 eggs?! Surely she'd have hyperstimulated, and would have been in
hospital
with a drain. Doesn't sound pleasant. Was she sticking to the protocol? As
I've said before, my Dr cancels or freeze-all's the cycle if you get more
than 18 eggs, so 90 sounds irresponsible to me! Perhaps she just was a
super
responder?
Yeah, I kept it in the fridge. Room temp is fine, when your room temp
doesn't get above 25 degrees, but in summer in Australia, room temp is
usually closer to 30, and not fine for the meds. They're made for a
European
environment, the most. But we cant leave them out here.
I'm fine, I'm just waiting, waiting, waiting. It's been 6 months since I
made our Fert.Dr.s appointment... Aaah. I'm so impatient!

Jade.
