Wow! It seems things sure have got noisy in here all of a sudden! It's nice to see so many familiar faces coming out of the woodwork. I guess we were all thinking the same thing, really.

I had someone send me a link to the article Lou posted the other day... Certainly something I want to keep an eye on! If it ever comes available in Australia, I'm going to be doing my best to have a go. Interesting that it works best for women with PCOS - they get more eggs this way than they can from a woman without PCOS. Looks like there's finally something where this is an advantage! But I guess it's a trade-off with the OHSS risk we face under normal stims.

I'm still plodding along with the pill. Seems the worst of everything has finally passed, I've thought that twice before and things got rough again, but seems to finally be done now. Weird how emotionally I'm ok this time, but have gone through physical hell. I guess because it was over before I even knew it had begun... I was more upset over the two that didn't thaw than I was over this one. In a way I think it's finally brought closure to the first miscarriage as well. The ill-fated embryos of the 2nd of April are now gone. One in emotional pain, one in physical pain, and two that just didn't make it. I have a weird image of the slate being wiped clean and starting over... without all the dramas of bleeding and lack of response then too much response that we had last time. Embryos produced with drama and problems all around did nothing but create drama and problems in the end. Hopefully our next lot will be created with no problems and will themselves create no problems. I think I've spent far too much time alone with my thoughts today - too many philosophical ponderings!

Looking forward to our appointment next week, and just hoping that we can get the Dr S perspective on things before we get there.
