42 eggs?!! I didn't even know that was possible. I had 21 and they said I was a rock star so I assumed that was on the high end. With 21 I was in a lot of pain right after retrieval at 3 or 4 pm but fine and went to work the next day.

Needless to say I developed OHSS. That was much worse than the retrieval pain.

I had 57 eggs removed. I didn't feel that bad the day after but then 2 days later I started hurting again. I can't stand up straight yet and walking like an old lady. Not on any prescription pain pills though.
