I hope you are able to get it all sorted out soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805148 Thu, 23 May 2013 18:13:57 +0000 raintreebee 805148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: sent you a pm re: NYC doctor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805123 Thu, 23 May 2013 18:10:44 +0000 Mrs.Someone 805123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I can imagine its a tough decision to make if you feel like your clock is ticking :( So sorry that you're having such a rough time with this. Considering that you've gotten pregnant naturally though, maybe it wouldn't take as long? I don't know.. I just would hate to see you give up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805071 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:58:58 +0000 marionberry 805071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I think even though other clinics may not necessarily be known for DOR, they may still be pretty good at it or at least with the IUI. I'd certainly look into others if you can. I would hate for you to give up given this stupid clinic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805067 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:58:25 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 805067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I'm sorry you are having such a hard time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805040 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:51:32 +0000 spaniellove 805040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetooth: Maybe...since I really don't want to do IVF again I guess I could just make a list of all the places where I'd consider doing an IUI since we never really exhausted that option. </p> <p>@Mrs.Someone: I'm not against working with an ND - taking supplements has helped me a lot over the past year so I'd be interested in learning more. The only thing I might be afraid of is that I don't have enough time with my few good eggs to make it work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805011 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:44:35 +0000 sweetooth 805011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: Maybe take some time this weekend to think through if the NYC location is an option. Could you try to schedule an appointment there? Just to see if the care would be better and more comforting? You deserve the best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-805009 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:44:31 +0000 Mrs.Someone 805009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: Boo :P Considering all the issues you have with meds, maybe an ND would be worth a try? I know not everyone is up for non-traditional medicine though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-804996 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:42:54 +0000 sweetooth 804996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I'm sorry you're in pain right now. I remember taking that medicine before the HSG and it did make my stomach turn. Is the medicine purely for purposes of preventing any infection? I know they do still insert the catheter for the sonogram, so maybe it's precautionary. </p> <p>Is there any other facility you can have this done at? I don't like to think of you in danger. Do you only have the two options for fertility clinics where you're at? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-804992 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:42:18 +0000 spaniellove 804992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: This was my last resort. The only other places I know of that are good with DOR are a couple clinics in CA and NYC, but their only treatment is to do a few rounds of mini-IVF (each at the cost of regular) to store up embryos and then do a frozen transfer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-804972 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:39:27 +0000 Mrs.Someone 804972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: Yikes, so irresponsible of them :( Do you have any other options in terms of places to go for treatment? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-804962 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:38:06 +0000 spaniellove 804962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetooth: The antibiotic is killing my stomach. I've had bleeding ulcers and have told them I can't take NSAIDs or anything that could cause stomach bleeding but they don't look at my records - last month they gave me a med with peanut oil when I have a peanut allergy. The clinic is notorious for being chaotic...it's the place that killed a patient during a routine procedure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-804940 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:34:26 +0000 sweetooth 804940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: Communication and good care are so important. Ugh. Don't give up. Keep pushing - they need to provide answers. I'm so sorry you're having to deal with all of this.</p> <p>So you haven't had the procedure yet? But you're already in pain? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/3#post-804922 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:31:09 +0000 spaniellove 804922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@marionberry: @sweetooth: I called this morning to tell the clinic I was in a lot of pain and ask what alternatives I had and they couldn't be bothered to respond to me. I am seriously thisclose to requesting my records and giving up. The records request form has been sitting on my table for a while now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-804825 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:17:11 +0000 sweetooth 804825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I looked up the sonohysterogram. I'm confused why they would prescribe any meds for that procedure, but maybe every office is different. It sounds a lot like the saline sonogram and I didn't take a thing for that. I do think it's a good procedure to do. It showed a totally different view than the HSG and for me - it confirmed the blockage in my uterus. I hope this procedure will give you some more answers. Hugs to you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-804822 Thu, 23 May 2013 17:16:30 +0000 sweetooth 804822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: So glad to hear you had a successful egg retrieval! Enjoy that happy feeling - just stay there in that happy place :)</p> <p>@ineebee: I hope 3rd time's a charm for you! Thinking of you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803668 Thu, 23 May 2013 13:16:43 +0000 marionberry 803668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: Good luck today! I really hope the third time's a charm!<br /> @raintreebee: Yay! Congrats! I hope this spells great things for you.<br /> @spaniellove: 10 seems like way too many. I know when I got sick off of them, they said that many people have bad reactions to it, so Idk why they'd ever think to give someone so many. The radiologist seemed to imply that you only need to take it afterward if they end up having to do something while they're in there (unblock something, remove something, etc.) but that as long as the scan goes well, you can skip them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803595 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:58:45 +0000 justdarling 803595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: Congrats on the 17 eggs!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803539 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:44:37 +0000 Shutterbug 803539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: great news! Agree with spaniellove, don't compare to last time, because you have the added boost of PGD this time. Have a relaxing day today! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803530 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:43:11 +0000 ineebee 803530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: Yay for a successful ER! Here's to the next step being just as successful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803529 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:43:02 +0000 spaniellove 803529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: That's awesome! Hopefully this will give you a good number to work with for PGD! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803508 Thu, 23 May 2013 12:39:21 +0000 raintreebee 803508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: good luck today! Thinking positive thoughts</p> <p>Retrieval went well. 17 eggs! Trying not to get too excited though since last time we had 16 and none took. But feeling happy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803320 Thu, 23 May 2013 11:43:33 +0000 ineebee 803320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shutterbug, @spaniellove, @mrswin, @mrs. someone: Thank you, ladies! Let's hope the third time's a charm!</p> <p>@thereeldeal: Happy O day, cycle twin! And happy TWW! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-803063 Thu, 23 May 2013 10:17:34 +0000 Mrs.Someone 803063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: So exciting, thinking of you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-802909 Thu, 23 May 2013 09:29:07 +0000 mrswin 802909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: Hahaha I know what you mean. They would tell me to go walk around for an hour or so before coming back for the IUI so I would go kill time at Winners! Not good for my wallet but a pretty good distraction! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-802898 Thu, 23 May 2013 09:25:38 +0000 TheReelDeal 802898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: Sending good vibes your way! Maybe we'll both get lucky this cycle :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-802824 Thu, 23 May 2013 09:07:41 +0000 spaniellove 802824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: Thinking positive thoughts for your IUI! The shoe shopping should help, right? :)</p> <p>@raintreebee: Hope everything goes well today and you have a smooth recovery! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-802810 Thu, 23 May 2013 09:03:07 +0000 Shutterbug 802810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: @ineebee: good luck to you both today!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-802780 Thu, 23 May 2013 08:50:44 +0000 ineebee 802780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrswin: Thanks! I'm killing time between the drop-off and my IUI at Starbucks and shoe shopping. Ahh, the good life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-516/page/2#post-802534 Thu, 23 May 2013 07:10:31 +0000 mrswin 802534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: 10 doses seems quite unreasonable! I don't have any serious allergies but I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to have to double check everything they provide you.</p> <p>@raintreebee: Good luck today!</p> <p>@ineebee: Good luck today! </p>
