It took some time for us to recover this time. I think it takes longer each time and the holidays probably didn't help any. I thought that would distract us but it only enhanced the emotions when you spend the holiday with family and there are babies and pregos on both sides. If you are one of those reading this, it is not personal. We are happy for you it is just difficult to see someone with what we have wanted for so long. I hope you understand.
Yesterday was my scheduling appointment where I sit down with the doctor and we review what has been and where we are going. As usual she looked at me and said I have great embryos, only this time my response was, "that doesn't matter if they don't stick". UGH! I asked her if there was anything we could do differently this time and she said the only thing we haven't tried was acupuncture. There are lots of studies but not enough long term evidence yet to prove it helps fertility. She said all of her other patients that tried it felt better and many of them ended up pregnant.
I told her I was willing to have a consultation and try it out, heck why not? The success rate in the pamphlet for this specific acupuncturist is 32% on infertility pregnancies after acupuncture. So I go next Wednesday. She said she would like to see me weekly and then before and after transfer, at $80 a pop, we'll see how that goes!
So I refilled my meds to discover that the Crinone was moved from a tier 3 drug ($60) to a tier 4 drug ($135). OF COURSE, oh and in case you didn't know, yes your insurance company can move drugs around in different tiers whenever they want!
I will post my new schedule as soon as this thing lets me.
