Trouble TTC

RE just dropped a bombshell (WW3TD?)

Hi ladies. I went for my follow up u/s today and the extra Clomid did not work. The follies that were 7 and 8 last week, were not even there. He suggested we move on to injectables. I was expecting that. I was also expecting that he would tell me they cost $2500-$3500 (since my crappy insurance will pay for abortions, but not for IF). I was not expecting him to tell me he wants me to continue on with ovarian drilling, since insurance will pay for that. Imagine that. I can get paid for surgery, but not for meds. So, I'm tentatively scheduled for it. DH is having a bad day at work and couldn't discuss it til later tonight and I've got to google to find out what this is all about.

Has anyone had it done? Any success stories?

    Hey Rena.  I have not had ovarian drilling.  I just wanted to wish you the best.  I know I have seen it in a few of the siggies on IF.  If you don't get any answers here, you may want to XP there.
