So sorry to hear you are still having such a rough time. How awful to be told that by your specialist. I'm not sure who you are seeing re the NK cells but Dr Gavin Sacks with IVF Aus in Sydney is who we saw and had success. There is also another guy in Melbourne Dr Mathias (not sure if I spelt it right) who is a specialist in the field and a girlfriend of mine just had a phone consult with him last week. We had an FS tell us that she had no idea what was going on and that we should also look at egg donor and surrogate because we had just had our 7th IVF failure with no explanation. I had already been to see Dr Sacks but we decided to have one last go with this FS in our home state and although we were very open to a donor we wanted to explore all our options first. She also told me she believed immune therapy to be witch doctoring. Well it worked on the third transfer with Dr Sacks (he said he believed we would have success within three goes) and I now have a 10 day old baby girl. I firmly believe that the NK cell treatment was the missing piece of the puzzle.
The other thing which may be helpful is to get a copy of Dr Alan Beer's 'Is your body baby friendly?' as it is all about immune issues and I recall reading about how elevated NK cell activity can affect egg quality because of the toxins released so treating the NK cells may well have a positive affect on the egg quality.
