Found out a friend starts IVF in a few weeks. So so happy for her, and excited, and nervous.

Made me think.. how long have we got to wait? because I have hand ops to work around too, and that might put it off even further? I'm scared and confused. If it's a choice, I'll go for IVF before the corrective surgery. The clock is ticking and I'm running out of time as it is.

Still more waiting :/

Results of MESA

Letter arrived today. Stuff has been found. Not much of it, and not sure how much '1 straw' is used for, but still - we have a shot. Fingers crossed! Now just to find the damn money!

DH's found a lump in his testes. It's not anywhere by where his op was, but he's not going to check again until the pain has gone. (Doesn't want anyone poking him there atm). It's obviously bothered him enough to mention it to me and have me look. That alone bothers me.


Please let it be gone when he recovers from his surgery. Please.

Hospital appointment

A virus - a very bad viral illness has affected our family. DH was very very ill for a few months a few yrs back - temp of 105, didn't recognise me. Well that has damaged him, or rather scarred/ blocked things, and it's not repairable. Our only option for children is IVF - every time. 


Not what either of us wanted obviously, and we have to wait now to see whether that was the only damage done. We're scared, relieved, desperately crossing our fingers.. and ultimately waiting. We've had pregnancies/ miscarriages before (prob down to my endometriosis), so this is something else to take in. Guess it's a plea to you guys out there - if you're ill, don't be pig-headed about it, get help, see the Dr, don't ignore it.
