Dr. B Consult!

I just got done talking with Dr. B (the endo specialist out of NY) and I wanted to write it out so I can remember our conversation.

He went over my history (I had previously emailed him a fairly detailed run down of my past) and he said I most likely have immune issues/egg quality issues/and endometriosis wreaking havoc on my reproductive system.  I've agreed to do the necessary testing he requires as well as doing a LAP.  He did mention that not just anyone should do the surgery, but that I needed someone that specializes in endo to preform it. He said it's not worth it to just have my RE do it.  So, I'm currently waiting to hear back from their insurance lady and to figure out how to go about getting this surgery done.  He said he doesn't know of anyone qualified to do the surgery in AL but he has several he can recommend that takes Tricare....coordinating all of this seems daunting but I believe it's worth pursuing, not only to try and have another baby, but to have a healthy future.

He said that I was still young (BLESS HIM!) and that I didn't necessarily need to do IVF.  Once I've done the testing, he can prescribe meds through my current RE and I can try naturally since I've achieved a natural preg in the past (I would still need to be monitored closely since I'd be on Lovenox, Progesterone, etc).  Guys, that was music to my ears! I do NOT want to have false hope but I feel like this is a huge positive step in the right direction. 

He recommended that I start taking omega 3's (which I already do), turmeric (which I already do), Coq10 (which I already do) melatonin (which I already do), Myo-Insoitol, Pine Tree Bark: Pycnogenol, and resveratrol. 

I'll write again when I know more...
