    hi julesp,

    just wanted to catch up with you to see how you are doing, all really well i hope. Im doing ok still taking all my medications and a clexane injection eveyday unfortunately im unable to administer it myself and a very good friend does it for me, i started off OK but i just lost my nerve for whatever reason and found myself in the bathroom for over an hour trying to give the jab and by that time i was anxious and would start crying as i was so disappointed in myself for being unable to do it but luckily it gets done now. Im nearly 19wks have my scan next week and feeling good. Would love to hear from you.
    Regards,

    Yellowblue.

    Hi, I am so glad that through a link from farmgirl (hello!) in the LTTTC section I found this thread. I have just been diagnosed with this after testing for recurrent miscarriage and must admit am freaking out a bit, even though I am glad they have identified the problem and it can be treated.
    I am just worried about what it will mean/possible problems and also a bit sorry for myself just right now, that we not only have trouble conceiving (I have only one tube left which is 'dodgy'), but now have another issue to deal with. I know I will get my head around this, but right now I am still I suppose dealing with the losses of the past 12 months and am a bit shell shocked and processing this latest info.
    Your stories are encouraging and just knowing you ladies are here is also encouraging and helpful

    Possums - It sounds like you are on your way - with a diagnosis and a treatment plan, I really hope it is not long until you are pregnant again for the whole 9 months. It must be overwhelming to have to investigate something else - it feels like more than enough to have to teach oneself about IVF - but I really feel like this is a very, very positive step.
