Frustrated....Sad...Depressed....
So......
It has been a while since I have posted on here. DH and I have been seeing a new RE since September 2008. Well the RE that we had seen left the practice in March2008. Ugh! So, now our stuff has been transferred to the partner in the office. We went to see him yesterday because we wanted to meet with him before we started any more advanced treatements. As most of you know my DH and I do not make a lot of money. We make emough for us to live reasonably well for someone with no children and once we have children would be able to provide for them okay if we cut out some stuff. No big deal right. Well, then we met with this RE and he is very knowledgable and knows his stuff. He is one of the best in our area. I am glad we are seeing him. Okay, now for the bad news.... He told me that I might have the PCOS which I already knew because I was diagnosed when I was 12 yrs. old. However, those symptoms of PCOS are being masked because of other issues such as low ovarian reserve. I wanted to cry right there in his office. I am 26 yrs old and from the blood work and ultrasounds they had done on me back in november 08 that my eggs were acting like a person of 38-40 years old. Bombshell, I know. I don't know if me being a multiple that was born prematurely has any effect on this or not? I wouldn't think so but I am not the doctor. I am just frustrated because we will most likely have to do IVF with Injectables and possibly use an Egg donor depending on what my blood work shows that they drew yesterday. He said I should know the results of those test in approx. 3 weeks.Has anyone ever heard of anyone in my case ? Please everyone pray for us that we can find the financial means to fund this all!
