DH and I have been hashing this out for weeks now, but pretty in depth over the last few days. It's stressed me out and changed my personality and moods to a point where I'm sick of myself. We needed to decide. Whatever it was, we needed to commit to something. Hopefully it will help my sanity before the school year starts, at least a bit.
I talked with my RE's office today and we are scheduled to begin our first IVF cycle.
I have to wait for AF. Then, go in for the CD3 tests (my old RE NEVER gave after me asking many many times for one). Then the stimulation (shots) plan. Then test for LH surge (Ovulation), then 8 days later begini taking the lupron. Then AF and other stims. . . and that should bring us to the beginning of October.
My estimated ER (if all goes well) should be around the middle of October.
If this IVF does not work (which I don't want to even think about) then I will be going in for the lap. (Perhaps to remove tubes, maybe not . . .I'll worry about that then.)
For now, I'm trying REALLY hard to think positively about this upcoming IVF cycle, but it's hard. We are 100% OOP and although we have some money set aside, no one likes to hand someone 13 grand for nothing. Plus, then I'd need to have the lap. . . and then another IVF cycle. All these things are running through my head while I'm trying not to get too stressed-- HAHA!!!
TTFN, I'll keep you posted!
I love you and am here for whatever you need during all these procedures. A cup of tea, a shoulder, a sounding board, a pretzel, etc. Anything you need girl, I am here.
