I'm so tired

I was able to get up today and shower. It wiped me out. I couldn't even wash my hair I was so tired. But I am back at home now in bed. My cat and dog are happy.
My nurse called with my blood work results. My estrogen was 2001 and my progesterone was 56. Currently I take 1cc of progesterone in oil and now they want me to up that to 2cc. I take .02 of delestrogen and they want to keep that the same. This shot is hard to give. The oil is so thick that you have to push hard on the plunger. Which makes Karlis's hand shake. Which makes my muscle hurt like you know what. So when I told him earlier we were increasing the dose he actually complained and said do you know how hard that is. And I said "do you think I'm thrilled about it?"....like I asked for his little finger to hurt a little longer....SERIOUSLY. I also get to add prometrium pills. This will be 3 times a day. My nurse said that will make me dizzy and tired...more tired...how can this be????
My hips are getting kind of sad. They itch, are red, have a few bruises. My nurse said at this point the muscle is just fed up. It starts to ball up and reject whatever it can including the medicine. It has started oozing out like it did first round of ivf. She said massage and ice would be the best thing. If I don't get pregnant from this I will be so frustrated by all the abuse I have put my body through for nothing. Not to mention a few others reasons to be totally hacked. I will be mad. At who?? I'm not sure but I will be. It's like the hit Weezer moment from Steal Magnolias. I'll be aiming for anyone. I might have just increased the prayers from all my friends and family.
