Thanks for the welcome back messages ladies- you're all lovely!
Juniper- Firstly, my most heartfelt congratulations. I'm so thrilled for you. xx Thank you for your thoughts on the endo. I have had it confirmed through a lap- after 18 years of excruciating periods that no doctor was interested in, the first thing the FS did was have a look. He confirmed the endo but at that stage (April 09) it was dormant, however there was lots of scar tissue including some that was sticking my otherwise healthy ovaries down. His opinion was to give IVF a go first as he is very cautious about messing around with those delicate bits prior to a woman having at least one child. Our plan was to do 3 transfer attempts then have the surgery if we were still unsuccessful. As it turned out, my last transfer was done just before we left Cairns so I'm no longer seeing him. I had in my head that I wanted to have the surgery before doing anything else, certainly before transferring our last two precious embryos. On reviewing my file and the photos from the lap, the new FS in Wollongong (who everybody raves about) didn't think that the scar tissue was in an area that would prevent pregnancy. So the new plan is that we will have another 2 or 3 Clomid cycles, then transfer the last two embryos and if need be, do another full stim cycle. I think if it gets to that I will have the surgery before another full cycle. You know what would be great? If this damn Clomid would work and I could just get on with my life!!
Thanks again for taking the time to comment on this. xx
