Thanks Butterfly and Monnie,
My avatar does look good - I just want some flowers and for my birds to be flying free. I have emailed poor Kathryn I hope she won't mind too much. I know she has a new baby so I am sure she has MUCH more pressing matters than my birds and lack of flowers!
Butterfly have you tried to get a consult with Professor Michael Chapman? He is a bit of a PCOS guru. I would give it a burl if I were you... I hear you there are some cowboys out there (don't get me started on THAT one) and it is very important to be as educated as you possibly can be. It is also important to have a specialist who you can really talk to, debate with, negotiate with and feel heard. You keep on reading and I am sure wonderful things will come of it
Michael Chapman isn't in an area of Sydney that's particularly accessible to me. I'm at the extreme North-West corner, and he's located decidedly South-East. I was contemplating getting a consult with the Dr who wrote the book, but I'm sure that just simply finding a specialist who knows what he's (why do I always assume he?) doing will at least set me on the right path... I can seek out the big guns if things don't start working for me. The big thing that's come out of tonight's reading is that clomid isn't the end of the story, there's another drug it can be used with, and FSH injections, and so on.
It's kind of strange to think that forgetting to take my pill nearly 12 months ago has set me on this path. Depressing to think that I'm still not pregnant, but if it had been a quick and easy process I would never have encountered the wonderful women here. I'm certainly feeling much more positive and starting to see the good in things again.
