about two hours, maybe more on a bad day...

is it just me that's finding it amusing that we're all awake at midnight on a saturday night posting in the LTAC thread...

lol BG, I was just thinking the same thing. Suffering major insomnia lately.
No point me going to bed!

Oh yeah its midnight...happy anniversary to me!!!

my one year wedding anniversary today!!!


i am also over an hour fromthe city...do you think he would know people out this way Odette?

I havent heard of another practictioner who is so specialised in OB/GYNO like he is- i live 45 mins away from Calton and its worth the trip!!! It takes me the same time travel wise to go for IVF so it doesn't bother me.
I was just so wrapped that what he said makes so much sense. Doesn't it???
yeah its pretty bizarre that its sat night and we are in LTAC - such party animals we are!!

Happy Anniversary Mel! (and Mr Mel)

Happy Anniversary Mel
I am about an hour from the city as well.
I saw an AP in Berwick a couple of times and he really didn't tell me anything about what he thought the problem was. He took all of my history, did his thing and that was it. Really interested in seeing someone who knows their stuff.

I can see it now...his business will triple at 9 am Monday morning a bit like Dr. Sacks. the power of bellybelly!!

[diva det]

definately knows his stuff
and he asked heaps of questions and even explained to me why he was asking and what my answers mean.
explained that he is gonna clear out all the stagnent stuff first esp build up after D/C and its gonna be a great clean out next AF - something to look foward to (NOT) and then should have heaps more EWCM next cycle and use chinese herbs throughout different stages of my cycle next month. Day 11 today so bring it on!
god my left ovary is making itself known!!! gonna cook it with a heat pack tonight

I'm now thinking I might try and see him in Balwyn. Probably still take me an hour in traffic, but sounds as though it might be worth it.
Odette, how regularly are you going to be seeing him?

[diva det]

he wants to see me once a week till AF. which all up is three session.

Then i don't know-i am tipping around once a forthnight after that. he reckons it will only take a couple of months to fix this problem- so willing to go intense for a bit if it is only short term.
i think initial session is around $95 and then after that is $85 a session plus herbs. You can claim some back on private health insurance if you have that option and he takes credit card!!!!

he is gonna give me a small amount of herbs to have during AF, different herbs from day 4 to o time and then another lot of herbs for my leteral phase. Sounds like he has it all worked out which is fine by me!
He only works 3 1/2 days a week so hopefully he doesn't get so busy that i can't get an appointment!!!! But hopefully he is so good that he doesn't hold onto his patients too long as they all go off with success stories really quickly!!
