thanks for link Italian.

Had horrible week: collapse, ambulance, resus, HDU, acute stroke ward. Found out not stroke but still suffering physical symptoms just getting better quicker! Sight and speech back, nearly normal. Gone from not move off bed to have 2 people to take me to the toilet and shower me!! Hours of ot and physio means am now home but wobbly.

Not got review of bfn until end May but the scanned my vessels in head to check this not the cause - thankfully not!

Italian - great that not far till get eggs!!

It genuinely sounds like we are getting closer to the top of the list. We may or may not get a choice between altruistic donor and egg sharer (altruistic donors donate their eggs for nothing and the eggs are shared between two recipients, egg sharers are women who are having treatment for themselves but are willing to share their eggs with a woman like me and in return they get a reduction in the fees they pay). We will probably not be given a choice in the sense that if we want the treatment as soon as possible we will need to take the first suitable match. Excited, nervous, almost ready!

Hugs to *all!

Womanlytales thanks, I really did not expect it to. It really was not very likely.

I got pregnant with my lovely DD 7 years ago b my second IUI. I have just one egg and I saw her on the scan looking like a little snowman. May you get your little blessing soon.

Nooknook great news. Good luck. I am not quite a cycle buddy, still a couple of months to go. Hope all goes well for you.

Is anyone else looking at treatment for May/June?

Lissy yay, starting soon, all the very best miss suntan superstar!

Tametortie all the best, lots of action on here!

No AF for 16 days, just over 2 weeks, so cracked and tested!

BFN. Not disappointed, just a fact, I knew it would be.

So come on period, roll on. At least, I can get my dental X-rays!

Hi everyone!

DH and I just got back from Hawaii on Monday. It was wonderful, and we're nicely tan and rested. Except for the jetlag, of course.

Am officially starting my cycle in a couple of weeks. On the long protocol, so start down regging on Day 21. Will stay at ARGC, although while we were away we got a letter from the borough about our NHS cycle. They said that they were going to try and get through everyone in the next couple of months, but I know that's not going to happen, so we're going to use that as our backup plan. In addition, we got a call from the charity we applied to, and they're going to give us some money towards the cycle.

Sorry not to name check, but still have unpacking and other nonsense to take care of.

Keep the faith, girls!!

Hello All!

Exciting new thread. The lucky thread for all of us!

Thanks for the message Italian.

I am still lurking - I started Gonal F on Monday and have a scan this coming Monday. All going well so far. I've started to feel a few ovary-related twinges today.

Love to all! xxx

Well I think I need to do a test tomorrow because period still not come on but I know it is not anything to get excited about. Last year it went missing for 6 months!

By the way, I've started a new thread about eating problems and posted some stuff. If you are interested, feel free to read it. It's mostly about impulsive eating.
