every side effect in the book

I just finished 3 cycles of clomid and, ladies, I had every single one of those symptoms they list (in fact, maybe I should update their list). Miserable hot flashes, night sweats (had to kick DH off of my side of the bed repeatedley and we usually love to snuggle:-( ), irritable, cry at the drop of a hat (those commercials! country songs! happy things...you name it) , yeast infection....am I missing anything?

I am starting injectibles this month and I don't know whether to be nervous (nervous about overstimulation) or releived! Supposedly they have less systemic side effects!
