framine........i live near newcastle and had my reversal at newcastle privatly through sydney ivf a doctor called dr woolnough, it cost us around $5500-$6000 cant remeber exactually, but we did get some money back through medicare ( not much) this doctor actually has a package of your stay in hospital,doctors bills etc, which you have to pay before or on the day you are admitted, after seeing him for the first time i was booked into hospital 2 weeks later, this might be a bit cheaper option than sydney, and your not that far away.......yes i had sucess from the operation, but it took me 18 months of trying, i had 2 m/c prior, and it was only after i decided not to try any more i fell pregnant, as i was obsessing about it........so onemore try and chill out....easier said than done....mind you we are ttc again so knowing me the obsessing will start again.
