New Here. Right place?

Hi Everyone,

I have been lurking here for a while since we were referred in April for assistance in becoming pregnant through IVF. 

Long story short: I was diagnosed with PCOS (3years ago) and endometriosis in Oct ?12. We did manage a pregnancy this year, but it ended in ectopic and was removed surgically.  As you know, it has been rough.  We were told if I could get pregnant the chance of having another ectopic is really high with the damage I have from endo. I did find out Monday that I have Diminished Ovarian Reserve and I do not have PCOS. I have had a busy week with a TET/Doppler/SHG and so far so good.  I have been lurking here and on the IF board just to find out what went on with IVF. 

I have followed a few of your blogs and you are all such strong women and I hope to be as strong as you all are going through this process.  First step was finally coming out of the dark and posting here.  (I posted in the loss board previously.) Hopefully this is the right place. (Please tell me if I am in the wrong place) Sorry if this is long.  Also, I do have a wonderful son from a long ago previous relationship, born 06/96.  I look forward to getting to know you all and to offer my support as well.

Stephanie
