Mines a long one and probably most are familiar with but here goes

Started TTC in 2003, after 6 months nothing happened had crazy cycles, so went to my GP and told a white lie said we had been TTC for 1 year and nothing.. sent to a fs in sydney, we were living on the mid north coast, and i refused to see the local guy, (Dr Death nic name) had all the tests and diagnosed with super super mild PCOS. Tried clomid for 6 months to no avail and periods became horrendously worse.. my husband liken my blood flow to that of a 'crime scene'. Told my fs who said it was probably clomid and he really 'didn't think i had endo'. We were given the option to have a lap/iui/ivf. He swayed us into the IVF path. On a pre IVF u/s my bladder showed to have a lesion on it, a day surgery procedure showed that i had a cyst in my bladder which was removed, but I still continued to have pain when passing urine after my periods, i was sure i had endometriosis. I had and got a very poor response with egg pick up for someone my age. FS then suggested after a negative outcome with ivf, and difficult epu that there must be some 'adhesions' in there. So I had a lap in November 2005, he basically went in and took one look and sewed me straight up. Pathologically I was way to hard for him to tackle so was referred onto the wonderful Dr Michael Cooper, of the ECCA centre in Sydney. After two major operations to remove endometriosis from both my bowel and bladder (yes it was on the bladder after all) I am now clear, however after 12 weeks away overseas i was experiencing excruitating pain on my left ovary, a recent u/s showed i had a endometrioma on my ovary. Two weeks ago Dr cooper removed it and it was a benign tumour. During this lap, he had a big look around and after nearly 15 months the endo still hasn't returned. FINALLY we have been given the all clear to TTC naturally!
