My story in short
February 14, 2008
Im 34 years old, DH and I have been ttc for many years w/ no luck what so ever. I was told I had pcos b/c I was infested w/ ovarian cysts and was only getting my period 3 or 4 times a year. I had an Ovarian Wedge Removal in 2004, it worked wonderfully, I lost about 30 lbs in just 2 months(I was at my normal healthy weight) and my periods were regular, DH and I separated at that time, so who knows if I was able to conceive. We worked thru our problems and are happily back together, we have been ttc on our own sense 2005, No-one told me that I was not ovulating until Aug 2007, In nov 2007 I started clomid and I have been ovulating, but have not conceived yet...my fingers are crossed and I keep the faith, but it can be so emotional sometimes I can't even see strait. I found this site just recently and Im hooked. There's comfort in knowing others know what I am going thru. So thank u Ladies and Dr.'s for helping get thru this emotional time a bit easier.
Hi!! I went for cd21 blood test yesterday and called to get results back today and her office was closed!!!! I have to wait till monday to find out! Im gonna go crazy! But yesterday at my yearly pap, Dr said if I didn't conceive this cycle she wants to start IUI w/ the Gonal-F Shot. Im kinda excited but nervous too. My insurance doesn't cover any infertility treatments, but I hear it's not too expensive. We'll see, maybe I won't have to do it at all.....
Amanda- what were ur results?????? I can't believe u didn't post yet!!!!! I prayed so hard for us:)

Shawnee, I don't have infertility insurance either. I am talking to my doctor Monday about the next steps, and i'm nervous too about the "unknown" financial leap of faith!
You have to keep my updated on Monday!!!! I'd be dieing too! They have NO excuse not to give you results on Monday!!!!
I posted in my other post.. the one where I was talking about Femara. But anyway, my results weren't good... only a .4 level :( so I didn't ovulate this month

PLEASE talk to ur Dr on monday about the IUI. I heard for the ENTIRE procedure it's only $400-$800, and usually closer to $400. Someone else mentioned on another post that her insurance doesn't cover infertility but they paid for her IUI and didn't bill it as infertility. I have been trying to contact her to find out exactly how, what and where.. I will pass the info along to u as soon as I find out.
