It often expires fairly quickly. I had 3 vials I got in Feb for the FET that wasn't and they already expired. I was just going to take them to work and dump them (side benefit of working in a hospital). The follistim would be fine if you shipped it un-refrigerated as some of mine came that way when I did my IVF and it was fine but if you really wanted to ship it refrigerated it's like 70 to ship fed ex overnight, get a soft insulated lunch bag thing with the blue ice packs and send it that way. That's what I did with one vial I had left. I still have tons of syringes that I have no idea what to do with. I'm not very inclined to give much of anything to the clinic at the moment as I'm not very happy with them.battynursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02240029154165501340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-15185073412802273882010-04-11T09:52:33.113-07:002010-04-11T09:52:33.113-07:00Hope your doctor gives you some advice/help with t...Hope your doctor gives you some advice/help with the insomnia. As for the IVF drugs, I took mine to my doctor's office. Not sure if your's will take them, but you could always try.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569347476683189045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-42924143120105635052010-04-11T08:54:24.147-07:002010-04-11T08:54:24.147-07:00I was going to suggest talking to your RE's of...I was going to suggest talking to your RE's office, to see if they can go to someone who can't afford the meds. (BTW, I never did say thank you for your kind offer of the progesterone/PIO a few weeks ago! so THANK YOU!) I hope you are able to find a good 'home' for them.Mrs. Gamgeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351339333625358960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6966847528840314277.post-51229527819778315082010-04-11T06:23:30.306-07:002010-04-11T06:23:30.306-07:00i had lots of meds left, as well as needles, alcoh...i had lots of meds left, as well as needles, alcohol wipes and all that. i donated them back to my RE's office and they gave them to another patient who didn't have RX coverage.

I have to get up about every two - three hours to pee, but at least I can sleep inbetween. <br /><br />My last IVF cycle, I used two GonalF pens that a fellow blogger sent me, and she sent them in a bubble package with an ice pack in them. I'm sure she probably had to go to the post office and ask about how to ship them. I think they were VERY lucky pens, since both of us conceived with that batch! Plus, it saved me about $900! I'd maybe see if Mel at Lost and Found would let you "advertise" them. http://lostandfoundandconnectionsabound.blogspot.com/Paula Kellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545620300368378897noreply@blogger.com
