Application is in!

Yeah! I finally got it all together and faxed the application to Rosalind Franklin Medical Center.
PPVI faxed my records today and now I am just waiting for my OBGYN to fax all my records. I guess it will probably be a week before I hear if I am accepted. Please God I hope I am doing the right thing. If I am accepted I will probably put off work with PPVI for awhile. AHH, tomorrow I will probably post differently and change my mind. We'll see.

I read in a book that if you have endometriosis you are 3 X's more likely to miscarry! This FREAKS me out!!!!!! I definitely believe this book is on the cutting edge of new medical opinions. A friend of mine that has done tons of research recommended it to me and I am so grateful. Also, she recommended this book. I can't say enough about this book if you have experienced:

1. Infertility
2. Autoimmune problems (Endometriosis, thyroid disease, PCOS, etc.)
3. Miscarriage

This book recommends this center for treatment (just one of many). Also, the friend I mentioned earlier went there and conceived after 10 years of infertility. WOW! So this is one of the reasons I am applying there for treatment. Hopefully this will be an answer for Dh and me.

So for a cycle update I am on P+6 today and started spotting again. That's not a good sign! Tomorrow is my P+7 blood draw and hopefully I won't have any problems...there have been times were I have to endure a lecture from the lab tech. about my blood draws (I have know idea why they do this). Once I even brought Dh to show him how they treat me but then they didn't say a word...that was very frustrating. Oh well, wish me luck. Thanks!

  1. You go girl! That doctor sounded like a quack. It sounds like you are being really pro-active with all your options (just not the immoral ones), haha! I love the name Hope Massett- adorable!

  4. Hi. I found your blog from over on Sew's site. Hope you dont mind if I follow-up and see how you are doing. I recently had surgery at PPVI and feel sooooo much better. You can see from my blog I have a string of crazy docs. Good luck on everything!
