I cannot believe the stress I encountered over the past few days...I felt like a crack head waiting for her drugs...it wasn't pretty and this is just the beginning!
My IVF nurse faxed over my meds list to Walgreens specialty pharmacy in Texas on Wednesday afternoon; I of course called to follow up with the pharmacy...thank goodness I did...4 frustrated calls later my meds were being "overnighted" via FedEx.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HAHA...the joke must be on my with my luck...I rec'd a phone call while at work from Texas Wednesday afternoon (a number I didn't want to see calling thru). The call went something like this:
Her: Hi, Crystal...this is Jaime with Quality Control for Walgreens
Me: Major heart thumping followed by a Hello (I think ;)
Her: The plane your medication was scheduled to leave on had encountered mechanical issues
Me: OMG...I NEED THOSE MEDS to begin tomorrow AM (holding back major tears and a break down)! I even told her the issues I had with the pharmacy they probably didn't even send them out
Her: She assured me they did leave the facility and gave me the tracking # to prove it
Me: Well there clearly isn't much I can do at this point since they decided to wait 12 hours later to inform me of this mishap.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I immediately emailed my nurse and called her...she said it would be ok to take it later on Friday....Thank God!
I told my nurse the meds shouldn't arrive too late because the package was upgraded to "Priority" for delivery no later than 10:30 am.
Oh no friends the fun didn't end there..............
Every hour yesterday, beginning with a morning wake up @ 3:30 am was filled with anguish. I have never realized how many trucks pass my work on a daily basis; well I know now! FINALLY at 12:30 and 2 calls to FedEx later (thank you hubby) my beautiful box of baby meds was in MY Hands!
I'm sure it was a sight to see me ripping through the box finding the Lupron I needed to inject right away. My co-worker said it looked like a Dr's office and proceeded to watch me inject my 1st of many many shots!
I hope this is the only major stress that I will endure this cycle because it was too much. I even found a meditation station on Pandora!
Here's a peek at the new addition to my fridge and counter!
