HOPE FOR A NEW CYCLE 2

Blakey - April 11

Hi Kellie, and Cheryl,
I understand your thoughts Cheryl, and what you are saying. I think we all agree on the fact that we do beleive what they tell us, and yes, we are so vulnerable when ddoing these treatments, and taking the meds...and yes, I beleive whole heartedly that they do "mess up" and then try to cover themselves...blaming it on our cycles etc...it really upsets me too, it just doesn't seem fair at all. My former RE (before i had switched to my new one) she was prescribing the wrong protocols for me. She was telling me I just wasen't responding etc...and would bnblame it on my age, etc...which yes, as we get older, our reserve does start to diminish etc.. but she wouldn't take any responsibility. She had prescribed this one protocol for me, where I was on stims for like 8 days and I onkly had 1 follicle- I just did not respond...a lot of the time, they are guessing, and it is literally a hit or miss with the meds, and protocols, and sometimes it takes them a few cycles to see what will work best for your body as far as dosage, and how much. They learn as they see how your body responds...
It is very upsetting. I too have read a lot of different stories on the boards, and other girls who have gone through similar situations, and are so upset with their Re's. I am sorry Kell, for your lost cyle this month, and I think that is awesome your going to mention about the adjustment for your iui- they should really try to compromise, and do that. I know, my Husband used to get upst with RE, and sometimes he thought they were all in it for the $$$- where patients would just continue doing cycle after cyle, and diffferent tretaments. I don't like to beleive that, but I know a lot of people feel that way.
Oh Cheryl...I am fine hon. I am sorry if I mentioned something in my last personal, that made you thin I was doing another IVF. no hon, I was mentioning how I had done 2 cycles of IVF, all out of pocket, and we basically went through all of our savings. No we are starting to save money again, (not for IVF)- just to try to build up our account again, and it is so hard. I understand your position, it just stinks that Ins. Co. don't cover in some states, it really upsets me. I hope someday that will change. It will all work out, and it may happen when you least expect it! Good luck to you! Hope you both are well...thinking of you both~

cheryl i am so sorry i was confusing you with another girl i talk to ehose ins does cover ivf-lucky for her, i really do hope they change that fast and ins start covering these expensive treatments. well i had my cd 3 bw and us and i was cancelled for this month b/c i had a leftover cyst. that sucked but the only goo thing is a get a break without it being my choice and wondering if im doing the right thing i was just forced into it. also i wont have to worry about getting my period now for the cruise so that was a bonus too. we leave may 6th and i would have gotten my period may 8th had i not fallen pregnant. i started asking the girl today all these questiosn and she really couldnt answer them b/c shes just the u/s tech but she said she thinks i need to meet with dr again, b/c she did say that i definetly didnt ovulate and just b/c i got my period doesnt mean i ovulated, just that im shedding my lining. she said women who have no eggs still have periods that was news to me, i thought they were all linked, i did ask about payment back on the iui but ill have to discuss that with the dr. i just dont understand if i dont ovulate on my own and i dont ovulate on these meds, how will i ever get pregnant that just really saddens me. and on top of all of it noone can tell me why i dont ovualte anymore why it just completely stopped last yr. im so confused but i cant meet with the dr til middle of may. so i will be on a break from here and all this pressured ttc crap. i hope for you cheryl that you make the best decision for you and dh, and i wish you kim a very happy healthy and enjoable pregnancy and hope one day i can get there too. thanks for all your support i couslnt have done this without you both. i would like both of your emails just to keep in touch, mine is [email protected]. thanks again-kelly
