Hello ladies,
I wanted to introduce myself as DH and I have recently found out that we are going to need to start IVF treatments. Here is our story...
DH and I got married July 20, 2009 and after about a year and me finishing school, we decided it was a good time to start our family.? I went to my OBGYN making sure we were doing everything possible to be successful and she felt a mass.? After testing and ultrasounds I was diagnosed with a Low Malignant Potential tumor which started growing inside of my right ovary and had grown to a 17cm tumor.? A week later I had surgery to remove the tumor which resulted in the removal of my right ovary and fallopian tube as well as 25% of my left ovary and my appendix since they were showing traces of the tumor.? Doctors said that had I been older and done having kids, they would have done a full hysterectomy.? Since I am 24, they only took out what was necessary.? A week after surgery, I came down with an infection and my abdomen filled with fluid.? I am now fully recovered and we have been trying to concieve but with only 75% of an ovary and swollen fallopian tubes due to the infection, our only hope is IVF.? We are in the process of getting our first appt with NovaIVF soon.? Wish us luck!
