    I did both the blood test and the biopsy....my blood levels of NK cells were normal but my uterine levels were the ones at 36% or 6 times normal.

    I did prednisone from CD1 at 10mg, increasing to 25mg from EPU and clexane from the day before transfer. I started weaning from the prednisone at week13 (takes about 5 weeks to get completely off them as you have to wean slowly) and stopped clexane at after week 20.

    Have you read "is my body baby friendly?' By dr alan beers....it is invaluable reading on all this sort of stuff....you may have to go to amazon to source it as it is not readily available.....

    Biopsy

    Hi Melbel,

    You did the Blood test first and the NK Cells didn't show up, is that correct. They only showed up on the biopsy ? wow

    Can I please ask what is involved in the biopsy procedure.
    Are you totally knocked out for the procedure ?
    How long does it take ? Any Pain afterwards ?
    Do you have to be at a certain stage of your cycle ? (e.i. after ovulation)
    Do you have to be IVF free for that month or can you do it during a cycle ?

    Thanks again for your help
