RE #1

 Appt went great, dr was awesome and very talkative....just the way I like it. We talked about all the tx I had done in the past. He was upset the prev DR did a laporoscpy and put me on luporn, and thought that was very unnecessary. He was even more mad that CD 3 bloodwork was never done to check FSH. He said that after looking through everything, his biggest concern was diminished ovarian reserve. He said that after all the med cycles, and the IUI's and such that I should be pregnant by now. He also said, that the follisitm I was taking a few years ago should have given me like 5 follicles and it didn't. He also said that it could be a sperm issue. The S/A has always come back normal, but he said they never check to make sure the sperm can penetrate an egg. So Kyle gave another sample today, and they will look at it very carefully. He also wants me to have a saline sonogram/hysterscope in the next couple of weeks. We did a bunch of blood work to test Estridiol, LH and FSH and a whole crap ton of other stuff. He also did an ultrasound to take a look t everything. He alsodid a swab for STD's and and mycoplasma, and did some sort of catheter check. We will have a follow up a week after the scope. His stats were so good, 78% live birth rate, but a 46% twins rate. His donor stats were 85% for a fresh cycle. He also only transfers on day 5. If it goes to day six, they freeze it and use it later. He also said if it goes to day 6 they can take peice of it and check it for down syndrome(among other things) and make sure you won't miscarry(he used lots of bigs words, and explained how it works, but I forget). Although Im not sure if we are interested in that. He would have sat there and talked with us for hours if we wanted him to. He said if I want to we can get everything in order for the March IVF cycle.....Makes me so nervous. Kyle and I have a lot to talk about financially before we commit. They also talked about paying for 1 cycle or doing a multi cycle for one fee.. He said that the med protocol is the same/different for everybody. He adjusts levels and meds as needed. He also is going to run some tests to see if maybe my body would respond to some other meds better versus the traditional ones. The staff was amazing, and my nurse coordinator was incredible. She made me feel like I was her only patient, and told me to call or email any time, and as often as I liked. The dr said the same thing, he doesn't want me in the dark about anything, so call as often as I like, even if the question seems silly.

 That was a post I made on a private group on facebook just after coming home from the RE. I was on a high, I was excited, nervous, and desperate to have a baby. I have a great group of girls who helped me research this DR and after million red flags, which I will not go into we decided to see a different DR.
