Hello (Intro)

Hi ladies!

My husband and I started TTC our first about 15 months ago. We had our first loss nine months ago and have had two more since then. I have endometriosis and, for years, have had problems with ovarian cysts. I am now under the care of an RE and just last week got the results of my repeat loss panel. It showed I tested positive for the lupus anticoagulant, anticardiolipin, and beta-2 glycoprotein antibodies. There were other things in the panel that I tested "high" on, but I'm still trying to figure out what it all means.

We won't actually be able to start TTC again until I have gotten, and healed from, cryotherapy for my cervix. (Hopefully, about 2 1/2 months from now) I have what the doctor called an eroded cervix, but I bleed pretty well from it throughout much of the month and she hopes this will help.

I'm looking forward to participating in this community, though I wish none of us ever needed such a board.

Thanks for the warm welcome! It's certainly been a rough road. It seems like every time I get one roadblock out of the way, another one is put in it's place. It's heartbreaking and exhausting.

I'm so sorry for each and every one of your losses. It is such a horrible thing to have to go through.

Welcome BBJ. I am so sorry for your losses. My sister has also suffered multiple losses and recently found out that they were caused by Lupus as well. The women on this board are amazing and I am sure you will find tons of support and comfort on this board.
