Hi Clizard. It's always good seeing your eyeballs checking in.
Hi All,
I am new and wanted to introduce my self I am 41 and my DH is 45. We have been LTTTC for the past almost 8 years. We took a break and I am pretty much lurking and stalking for motivation.
We had horrible insurance before that didn't cover IUI or IVF but I just started a new job that has great insurance and they cover IUI and a couple of rounds of IVF.
I am still trying to see if I want to push forward and my age is what is stopping me (mostly the family critics that do more harm than good with unwanted advice).
If you don't mind me just hanging out and reading, I would greatly appreciate it. I feel very alone as I am literally the last one of my friends and family to have a child.
ps--that's incredible that you produce so many follicles with a high FSH. It's a good reminder that lab numbers don't tell the whole story. That is a great AFC! I get 2-3 follicles total for my AFC, so I'm a little jealous of you. I hope everything goes well!
AFM--I was just reading about another woman who's body was rejecting embryos 7 went through multiple IUIs and IVFs. PC and Weezy's results have inspired me to try to get some immune testing done. I looked up a bunch of tests and asked my insurance company if they cover them and it sounds like they do. So then I left a message with a nurse that I want to have some immune testing done. I explained in the message that I want to do everything I possibly can that's covered by insurance before spending lots of $$. A nurse calls back and says, "So what tests does your dr want to run?" I said, "None, that's why I'm calling, to request some." Duh. I'm sure she'd looked at my chart and knew the dr hadn't requested any yet. She seemed very confused by the whole idea, so we will see how hard I have to fight for it. I did have the antinuclear antibody test done a while back and it came back low positive. The test results were not reported correctly, though, so I for sure want that redone.
