A bright spot among all the gloom

Mike nudged me over to the pharmacy today to pick up my meds. I really didn't know how much all this was going to cost since *surprise surprise* my insurance does not cover anything related to infertility. Basically my insurance covers nothing, but that is for a different type of blog.

Anyway, Femara is used off label in fertility so guess what!?! It was covered! I only had to pay $10 for a 1 month supply. My progesterone was also only $10 for a 30 day supply.

I had planned to shell out a couple hundred bucks per month and so I was pleasantly surprised that it was only $15 (the progesterone will last me two cycles).

I may have moon walked out of the pharmacy. Only the eye witnesses know for sure.

My Femara dose is 5mg on CD 5 - CD 9. The RE says I should get a response from that within 5 days of the last dose, so somewhere between CD 10 and CD 14. I'm supposed to start the progesterone on CD17 but I will wait and start it 3 or 4 days after my temp spike to be on the safe side whatever day that may be.

For the first time in my life I'm ready for this cycle to be over so I can finally take these meds and see if they do anything!
