Well I'm breathing alot easier  tonight. I'm glad that I called my insurance company back this afternoon. It turns out that the inject able stimulate drugs that I will be put on soon are covered by the insurance if I send them to a speciality pharmacy. Praise god!!  Taking them will be only if I don't get a positive test next week. fingers crossed that I do. Have any of you taken Follistim or Gonal-F before? Please tell me what you think what you liked or didn't like about them. Any help would be great  Now if the inject ables do not work we will be onto IVF. Now that is something that isn't covered at all by the insurance.  So that's where we are in this next journey

Well my appointment on Jan 12 at the RE didn't go well at all. Yes I knew that we had talked about the whole shot thing. BUT I was really hoping that we wouldn't have to go down that road.  So I have to get another SHG. YUCK this is like my eighth one and they suck if you have ever had one you know.  Along with the SHG I have to start taking a pill called DHEA. My RE thinks that this pill will help with my ovarian reserve produce better, because it doesn't work hardly at all.  SO once my cycle starts I get the SHG, we decide which shot we want to take which will be Follistim or Gonal-F.  I'm still undecided which one we want to do.  Have any of you done any of these? Advice please? Then we will get a trigger shot as well.  I'm so lost and frustrated grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.   So thats where we are at this point.
