Hi everyone,

I am Maz. 40 years old and live in the Glasgow area. Been married for almost 10 years tho have been together for 22 years! Hubby had testicular cancer so that has given major problems conceiving...now for the marathon list of treatment!! lol
4 attempts of basic insemination, 4 attempts of IUI, 3 attempts of IVF which unfortunatley all failed not even a positive pg test. Then to my surprise Nvember 2001 found i was pg just as i had started bleeding heavy so ended in miscarriage. Following November i done a test and got a positive pg result! (Must be my time of year!! lol) at 6 weeks started bleeding a bit had weekly scans till 9 weeks and was told no heartbeat on Christmas eve (great timing) and had a D & C 30th Dec 2002. Since then havent managed another conception prob being in June this year found i had an under active thyroid and have started on Thyroxine. I really am looking for ladies out there who are in the similiar situation as myself to be a clomid buddy also as i am starting the drug as i have not been ovulating due to the thyroid problem. Sorry, if this is a bit long!! look forward to hearing from you...
Baby Dust,
Maz.
