    Good luck MrsMac

    PS - I was a little confused about the price of the filgrastim. I know the dose is dependant on your weight, but how much is it for the six vials?? How much is in a vial? Also wondering if you could tell me where you get the DHEA and melatonin. I know you can only get them from compounding chemists but I have heard that some chemists are better than others...

    Thanks Hope your cycle is going well. Have you had your scan yet?

    Miss B - Keep your chin up. You have had such good success, you just never know

    My Turn - Good luck for your scan!!! When is it?

    Emma, if you want to go again straight away, you will need to ring the clinic ASAP and report Day 1. It might be an issue if your FS has not written up a treatment schedule for you. Have you got a review appointment? I have done lots of back to backs, so, in theory it is not an issue.

    AFM - I have upped the dosage of coQ10 I take. I was on 300mg, now on 600mg. I will also start melatonin soon. Still a little unsure of the DHEA. I need a prescription for that anyway.
    As I wrote previously, I have a hysteroscopy/biopsy scheduled with my original FS on the 30th. She was only doing it because I asked her to. It was going to cost me $1500+. My new FS can do the biopsy part in his office on the 23rd ( testing for NK cells) for about $100. He said he would probably cancel the hysteroscopy. I am not sure what to do.
    I don't think my original FS was going to "do" anything, just have a look. Opinions welcome

    hmmmm... N2L ..... if you've changed specialists and you've already had a hysteroscopy (I think I recall you said you've had one before..??) then maybe it's not worth having another??? If the test can be done by your new guys much cheaper, I'm not sure whether going through the surgery is going to help??? I am assuming you are not going back to the old FS now anyway... so..... I guess I'd probably agree with the new FS....

    so much going on for you - it must be a bit of a head spin!! xx

    My first US is on Tuesday - but I am not expecting to trigger before next weekend (if I go by the other stim cycles....) I hope so anyway - would like a few more days off work!! AND my SiL is having her b'day party next saturday and I have bought a costume... yes costume, it's mad hatters tea party, and DH is going as the Bad Mad hatter, and I am going as the Queen of Hearts I know.... the costume cost a fortune! But it will be fun - I ordered them online from a plus sized shop and they will be arriving early this week.

    In the meantime, I am offically on leave from work for the week (I have taken some time in lieu, as we are supposed to take it during the school holidays), so having had 4 days off last week for being sick, all of this week off for leave, and most likely 2 - 3 days off the week after for EPU and ET, I think I'm doing pretty well.... if does of course, mean that everything at work will be prolonged as well... but... cest la vie..... I am not going to feel guilty - I am going to enjoy it.

    Good luck Mrs Mac!!! FX it's a quick TWW for you!

    to everyone else xx

    kerbear - hi. technically im not cycling atm either, but will be soon. still hanging around like a bad smell in here though... so come and join me!

    emma - belated . (i have been able to do back to back transfers, with both clinics i have been with).

    mrs mac - best wishes for your transfer tomoz. xx

    miss b/myturn - you can put in the tww if you like.

    n2l - we are in the same boat atm, although i havent even thought to ask how much the hyst/biopsy would be - no idea its $1500+! one of the reasons i thought i would bundle them in together is so that i would be under GA for biopsy part, ive heard it hurts. and im a sook. a big one. guess i dont really need the hsyteroscopy either, ive had one before too & it would just be so new FS could take a peak in there. i guess if they arent doing anything in there, and you've had one already - just a biopsy then? especially considering the price difference. hmm, not sure. i guess having both would give you reassurance that you're starting off with everything in order/clean slate etc for any new protocols you might be trying? its tough balancing the choice, whether the hyst. part is an unecessary procedure... im not being much help, am i?!
