How do you feel taking PIO? Today was my 4th day of taking it and I feel so tired all the time. I get chills and just don’t feel like getting up and doing my household work. Taking naps in between during work hours. Thanks to work from home. Is there any tips to feel better?

Yup, same. Tired, sore boobs, constant having to pee, weird dreams. Like being pregnant except like you, I also had multiple failed transfers.

OP, try to take it easy if you can. Not much there is to do about it, and if you’re in the pre-transfer stage, probably don’t want to push your body too hard anyway.

I don’t know!! My test is on 15th, when is yours? I am trying to not focus on this but constantly that is on my mind but not in a positive way. I keep telling myself don’t get your hopes high, or thinking is it still there? and is it growing or already failed? - a confused state of mind 🙄 I am off next week from work, thinking of going somewhere but due to covid, feels unsafe too. What both of us can do? Let me know if you are watching any good tv show to divert your mind haha

3. Honestly- I have seen SF people pushing for products which are really not needed by clients. I can never do such a thing - so is there an expectation from the AE’s that Architects should do so?

This question may not be related. However I wanted to know from personal and family point of view how it is like to relocate from India and live abroad .

Don't they feel loneliness/ difficult to adjust? Do they look for similar asian nationalities to kill boredom?
