I'm really starting to realise just how little I know about this whole process of IVF, and it's a little overwhelming right now!

I've been very confident with my FS, and feel that he will give me the information that I don't yet know that I need - we've left every appointment with our hands full of paperwork and reading material to go over later.

Now that we are mainly dealing with the nurses, I feel that I'm not being given the full story. That I'm being given the rough outline in an attempt to not worry me. Unfortunately I don't know what the questions I need to ask to find out the information that I don't know that I actually need to know yet! If that makes sense at all.

Between my GP and my rheumatologist (long term arthritis condition) I'm used to feeling like I'm having an active role in the treatment process - I'm usually presented with the options, given the advantages and disadvantages of each, but which option is eventually used is my decision in the end. How can I get to this point with IVF? Or is it such a complicated process that I'll never be able to understand it enough?
