So I saw the RE today, to discuss our lack of success and what to do this time.
I asked him....
Q: how many more IUI's he expects to do A: One with femara and one with injectables...oh accept that injectables cost a pretty penny, so if its not covered under trevs plan I am not wasting them on an IUI.
Q:what do we do after that (har har I knew this answer but he didn't need to know that) A: IVF
Q: is it possible that there is something preventing me from getting pregnant? A:could be, he looked at my miscarriage, and I told him the u/s I had after showed everything was clear, and didn;t have a D&C so there wouldn;t be scar tissue. He doesn't think this is an issue, but agrees that its strange I got pregnant so easily, then have had 4 failed cycles since.
Q: is there any testing that we haven't done yet, how have my trsts been so far? A: all the clotting workup was fine...so a clotting disorder did NOT cause my miscarriage (Yay..gotta be happy about something huh?) We haven't done a lap...to check for endo...so he went back and looked at my original workup questionnaire, said its possible with my symptoms that I could have some endo, and I told him my symptoms have gotten wore as we have gone through fertility treatments. He said at this point though, it would be a 3-4 month wait for that surgery..and its a surgery(which will be difficult with my ppast history of abdominal surgeries) He said if we get to IVF, the endo wouldn't affect it anyways.
I think thats about it, I am glad that he and I are on the same page about things, I really didn;t want to do more than 1 IUI before moving forward, but I am happy hes not going to try things more than once before moving on. I did forget to ask what endo does to affect/prevent pregnancy....does anyone know?
I have a feeling that Trev's plan won't cover these injectables anyway, so we would only be doing this cycle before moving on to IVF.

I am glad he gave you some answers... though I am sure you wanted even more info!
