Of course I had to bring all of my FET goodies along with me - at least what I need to get through Thursday, Friday, Saturday, & Sunday morning. (I actually packed enough to get me through Monday - in case we have troubles flying back on Sunday because you just never know.) This weekend we start throwing in some progesterone into the mix, so I had to bring Lupron, Estrogen, & Progesterone. The nurse gave me a nice little travel bag to use for my supplies and a doctor's note explaining to the airlines why I need to have my medicines with me on the plane. (They told me not to check it in my luggage - because I'd be in trouble if they lost my bag!) I made sure to get to the airport extra early for my flight - just in case I had any issues getting through security. The x-ray machine guy looked like he saw something odd as I was waiting for my bags to come out, so I assumed it was my stuff and said, "I have a doctor's note for my medications." And he was like, "No, you're fine." So it ended up not being a big deal at all - whew!
