- Ok, this is my first IVF cycle and I am too curious. How have yours gone? How many days of trigger drugs (is that right?) did you do? How many were retrieved? How many were viable? Did you freeze left overs? Have you implanted frozen ones? Did you...
- I'm going for it! I maxed out my leave for the year and my company wants me to fill out a short term disability form and a fmla form.Fmla is not problem, my current doc is a surgeon, not a baby doctor so it is not too intrusive, but the short term...

- Hi, I have a slight l4-l5 herniation. I want to post here to hopefully help others in a similar situation. My back went out on me for 2+ years starting at age 28? And then at age 32, I fell down the stairs. Doc said I had a herniation, it...
- Hi, I just came out of surgery yesterday and could use some info.Have you had cysts while trying IVF? Did it only happen during one cycle for you, or have you had problems for a long time?I just had 2 new cysts removed, this means I have had 4, yes...

- Hi, ok, I am not afraid to ask for well wishes. Please post something to cheer me up.I'm having my 3rd surgery of the year and never thought I'd be here a year ago. Many of you know my story. For new endo sisters, I'll put it on here to give you...
- Ok, they all have one: heart disease, breast cancer, lung cancer.We need a shirt we can wear with pride. YES, we do. One that doesn't make women or men cringe. If people can talk about boobies on their t-shirt, we can talk about endo.But! The...
- Hi! I am a member of a couple other boards because I have health issues. One of my other board sisters recently wrote that she has Lymes disease, so when I saw three small bullseye rashes on my legs, I jumped!Straight to get tested. The tests...
- Ok, so I just found out about the evil twin sister IC (Interstitial cystitis). Crazy enough I have had many of these symptoms for years. Question: if you have IC when do the symptoms come? Does it follow your period cycle at all?Also, I sometimes...
- I just order an endo book and books like this are a little boring to me. I need some support to get through this damn thing. Here's the...
- Ok, hold up. I know I am new to this all, but did you know there is another condition which is present 80 to 90% of the time with endo?!?!?!I can't even spell the whole name. Here is a link to info: ...
