Seeing the Signs...to Nowhere

There are certain signs they tell you watch for with OHSS and I've got every single one. Nausea? Check! Pain? Check! Hard to breathe? Check! Gaining 3-4 lbs a day in fluid? Check! Extreme thirt? Check! Decreased urine output? Check! Swollen hands/feet? Check! You know what they can do about it? Not a damn thing. If I start vomiting, quit peeing completely, start coughing from lack of breathing, or the pain gets so bad I can't stand it then I go to the ER and they can drain the fluid through my abdomen. Doesn't ivf sound like so much fun?? Not. More than once this week I have thought I was dying. For real.
