OHSS

Well, I got some not really good news today.  I woke up and weighed myself only to find out that I had gained 5 lbs since yesterday.  This is not a good sign and actually means that my ovaries are leaking fluid into my abdominal cavity which is called Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome or OHSS.  This can be serious if I stop peeing, my urine becomes very dark or I have trouble breathing.  Luckily, I have not had any of these issues thus far.  As of right now, 2:41pm, I have consumed 68oz of water and have peed 12 times today.  My urine output is a lot and my abdominal swelling has gone down.  In addition, my urine is so clear you could almost drink it...almost.  Nevertheless, my doctor still wants me to come in tomorrow morning to be evaluated.  Since my transfer is scheduled for Wednesday, they want to make sure that everything is ok.  Hopefully if I continue with my massive fluid and protein intake, I will continue to pass the fluid and will be ready for everything to go down on Wednesday!
