I tried to rest a lot yesterday, since my doctor told me when she called, that feeling bloated and sore is completely normal with the amount of eggs that were retrieved (31). I have been drinking Gatorade and resting for over 48 hours now and am still in pain. My stomach still looks like this and I can not get comfortable..sitting, laying,standing...nothing feels good! I am having a hard time walking upright, since the pressure in my abdomen is so strong.
My weight is still high(8 pounds more than it was the day before my retrieval). I also have started feeling feverish and achey so I took my temperature, and have a fever of 99.8, I know it's not too high, but it has me slightly concerned. I was going to call my doctor to see if this is normal but they are closed for the day, I could call the on call MD but I have decided to wait a bit longer and see how I feel. I am going to take more Tylenol, even though it is not helping with the pain, it might help with the fever..although I'm not sure if I should take the Tylenol or monitor the fever without it..
Up until this point my experience had been pretty positive, and now I am second guessing my choice to donate again..I am still in a lot of pain and the pressure in my abdomen seems to have no relief.
:(
I hope I find some relief soon..
