how you doing ?? Sorry for delay in reply to you, but as mentioned above we have been away camping for few days (to Goolwa, where it was cloudy and windy !!).
I too am with Repromed and under a lovely consultant, Kelton Tremellen. I have hung onto his every word since this began a year ago. He actually invented what they call the "egg timer" test, this apparently gives an indication (through blood tests) as to how many eggs are possibly remaining. usually few eggs means poorer quality (as in my case). I'v never had high egg numbers either, but as you say maybe it is better to have slightly fewer (although above 6 would be nice !)as it could have something to do with the quality (who knows !!!).
I'm now banking on this "luveris" injection they are incorperating into the cycle, we have to try anything at the end of the day hey ??
Funny enough, it was Richard Henshaw who did my last ER, it was litrally at the last moment that he said "oh no, we didn't do an ID check". As I was on the verge of going "under" I drowsly muttered my medical number (in a military format), then "kappoot", I was out for the count. All I can remember is them laughing as I went under. I'm sure you would agree the whole staff there are absolutely brilliant. They have been so caring from the out-set. Have you been with them for the 6 years ??
Sorry to hear it has been such a long journey for you and DH, you are so brave to continue after so long.
Yep, we shall be cycling about 2 weeks apart (thats if you are doing the long protocol and not antagonistic). So it will be great to talk to you along the way. I'm due AF any day now, so waiting to book on. We are off camping again at weekend (Port Vincent) to keep us occupied. As you will see in above reply, I'm trying to keep busy to take my mind off things. I'm a stay at home mum, so until I know where we are at, I shall not be looking for work. I'v wanted too, but because of 3 cycles all close together last year I didn't think it was worth looking. Although at times, I'm sure it's just the tonic I need, as it will give me something to concentrate on !!
Good luck in preparation, keep me upto date. Thanks for replying and your kind words.
