Hope Floats

Thank you kind ladies for the replies to my last post. I cried over a couple of them. :)

They will try more Clomid or Femara or even injectibles, but they want me to take 2 months off to steady my hormones. Also, I've started acupuncture and my acupuncturist wants me to try some herbs for the 2 month break, so I figure that is worth a try. Also, my insurance doesn't cover any fertility meds so figuring that part out is a challenge too.

Of course I will keep you all posted because I tell you people everything!

  2. Good stuff. I am going to call an accupuncurist in my area this week, too. Glad to hear that you are taking that break. Let me know if you need anything.

  3. I totally get the out of pocket expense- it really limits what we do as well. If they do the Clomid a few more after you take the next few months off, that would be great- or maybe the Femara will do the trick. If you do try injectables, they might refer you to a program through Serono (the gonal-f people) that might be able to help you with cost or possibly free meds ;) Sometimes they have coupons in the fertility clinics too, if you let them know about your concerns for cost.

    But, in the meantime... try to enjoy the med-free break. I know it's usually easier said than done, but sometimes a break is wonderful (*hugs*)
