Appt. Today

[Starr]

This afternoon Dh and I are meeting with our fertility Dr. I'm not sure what he'll do but chances are we will be referred somehwhere else soon because he is retiring in July. I'm a little nervous though so wish me luck.

Starr,
How did it go? Was he able to refer you to someone phenomenal? (I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!)

Hope your appointment went well!

It went good. I showed him about how my last few cycles were. Varying from 24 days to 35 days : . Also mentioned that we used the ovulation strips for 3 months and it never showed I ovulated. I actually made him laugh when I said, " I just want to pee on SOMETHING and have two lines."

The plan is now that next Monday, in two weeks, I will go in and have some blood drawn and he will be able to see if I am ovulating. If it comes back low saying I'm not I will go on Clomid. If it comes back and is high then he may do a laparoscopy because of endometriosis. Not sure if insurance will cover the laparoscopy if its for fertility so I'm hoping we don't have to do that. Overall I thought it went great and Dh was happy because there was no mention of his spermies or a cup

If you mention that you have "pelvic pain" and that is listed as the reason for your exploratory lap then the insurance will cover it. Even if you just have mild cramps with your AF, it is "pelvic pain". This is how I got around the "no fertility coverage" clause.
