Will you possibly be using neupogen?  My last injection was last night and I have 11 vials leftover.

Re: ~~theworms~~

  • i will be adding it at some point to my protocol.

    if you want to send some my way i will take it.

    and can i just say how freaking excited and happy i am for you!!!

    did you ever tell your RE that Dr. B consulted on your last IVF?

    how was DR. B during your first tri?  what's his fee for first tri consulting?

    It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.

  • I'd love to send it to you!

    Thanks!  We are very excited.  Dr. B was also very excited for us! 

    No, I didn't tell my RE that Dr. B consulted.  But, my RE didn't really say much about anything before releasing me to my OB.  After going through 3 IVFs and a bunch of other things with him, I was very disappointed by his response to things.

    Dr. B has been great.  He was very encouraging the entire time.  When I told him about my low positive betas and asked a few questions via email, he called me up right away to make sure I wasn't too anxious.  I was, so his call was very reassuring.  I've talked to him a few times since then, but mostly correspond via email.  They did two immune panels during first tri to keep an eye on things.  He had me stay on Neupogen a few weeks longer than his standard protocol because of my immune issues and the testing.  I'm pretty nervous to stop it, but it will be nice to be down to one injection a day!

    The cost for 1st tri consulting was the same as his fee to consult/prescribe neupogen ($1,200) during my IVF cycle.
