New Doctor (RE)
Well, I am glad we got this second opinion.  This doctor thinks I have been mis-diagnosed among some other questionable decsions from my previous RE.  He says I do not have PCOS since I actually have regular menstruation cycles.  He suspects it is more likely that I have endometriosis.  To fully determine that I could have a minor surgery to clean that area out.  I can also just go straight to IVF--which is what we are going to do in my next cycle.  And when he laid out the financial aspects, it is not nearly as expensive as I thought is wqs going to be.  With my previous RE, I was looking as 12K per cycle.  With this RE it is pricey the first cycle , but actually fairly reasonable with subsequent cycles.  I really think I will be pregnant within 3 cycles of IVF.  This doctor laid out our options for the most agressive ways--this made Justin very happy.  He feels more in control of our future.  I will go back in one more week to check for ovulation.
