[quote=Anonymous]So, I am 5wk preg (yay!) from an FET cycle.  I need to travel to Las Vegas for work for a long-scheduled and super important conference.  I'll be there for 3 nights, 4 days next week.  I am on all PIO shots rather and Endometrin due to insurance coverage, but I had my RE tweak my protocol so that I could be on Endometrin most of the time and only do a PIO shot once every 72 hours.  The way my protocol works out, I only need one administration of a PIO shot while in Las Vegas (henceforth to be known as Fertility Support HELL).

I have called literally every fertility clinic and home health provider in Las Vegas, plus a night nurse agency, and have been turned down by every single provider I have called. Apparently home injection services like we have the in DC area are not a thing over there -- none of the clinics knew what I was talking about.  I have spent hours on the phone with providers and my insurance company who was trying to find a home health provider for me who would do it.  And, even with a prescription fax from my nurse at Shady Grove, I have not been able to find anyone who will administer a PIO shot.

What are my options?  Doing it myself is not out of the question, but obviously I'm scared to since I've been trying this hard to find someone to help administer my shot.  Has anyone else experienced this when traveling to a (hellhole) secondary city?  I'd love for my hectic work life to stop because of IVF/FET, but...it doesn't.  I want to cry and, honestly, wtf?!?![/quote]
