Nothing2lose, yeah I have heard the same, but that's when you use it for a few cycles and n high dosage. But I have never used it, so I don't really know...

I'm in a "let's just get it over and done with" frame of mind right now. Wasn't impressed when AF sort of started last night, then disappeared all day and made me wait until 5:30 this afternoon to start for real...
I had heard the same, but usually after a few cycles. I think most women are fine the first cycle or two, although there are always exceptions to any rule...I've always been told that clomid is really bad for your lining
CatyO, I definitely think it's worth getting your endo treated (ie removed). It will mean losing a little TTC time (usually the lap cycle and the following cycle), but worth it for the boost in your chances. If you have endo on your bowel, ask your GP for a referral to the best surgeon in your area. Or if your FS doesn't do that sort of work, ask them who they'd recommend. That's delicate work and you want the best person possible doing it. If you're in Brissie, I highly recommend my previous FS. I still intend to go back to him for my endo. I had endo covering half of my bowel when he did my first surgery and he removed as much as possible. He did say I'll need a bowel resection one day though, to fix it properly...

CatyO, just bear in mind the good surgeons can have long waiting lists and then you wait again for a surgical slot. I got my referral in June last year and had my surgery in August - I had to wait 1 month for an appt and then 1 month for a surgical opening, and that was as an existing patient, not a new one who can often wait longer for that first appt... I'd get the referral now and start the ball rolling. If they offer a surgical spot earlier than you want, you just say you're not available at that time and ask if there's anything in early September. I've always just taken the first one because that's what I wanted (ie ASAP)...

I was wondering the same thing about Clomid.. I have heard that it can cause a thin lining but my FS really thinks that it's the way to go. I think he said I will take the clomid to get my ovaries producing some hormones of their own and then take oral estrogen as well if we're not getting a good enough response.
I'm still really unsure if I should go ahead with a FET this cycle or skip a month or two, but I guess we have till Saturday to decide since I'm not supposed to start the clomid till then. If we do go ahead I'm considering tx both our blasts and being done with it... I don't want any more cycles!! In a really dark place at the moment... I don't know why I'm handling this so badly.. I just want it over with and I want to be done with TTC..

CatyO just looking at what you paid last cycle, the $750 for hospital was that your health insurance excess? I dont recall that being a listed fee from repromed.. :/ i was thinking that all i had to pay was my hospital excess and then anesthetics would be covered.. argh I feel like little extra's keep popping up and whilst my mum is paying for the cycle I dont want to ask her to pay all the incidentals But we are also on a very tight budget.
I have scan and bloods tomorrow so I will ask for more clarification.

Glorious, I changed my health insurance last year, so it covered Assisted Conception, the thing is that I didn't read that it would cover it only in a public hospital, not in a private hospital, very silly policy as I don't think a public hospital does IVF... so I had to change my health insurance coverage again and until next year will cover the IVF in a Private Hospital, so this time I had to pay $750 for the hospital and $350 for Anaesthetist and Medicare refund for the Anaesthetist was about $120. And I paid the Repromed gap too. I had 2 appointments with my FS and it was about $169 for each one, that's not included in the Repromed Gap either.
I hope this wasn't more confusing
