I'm at the ARGC in London - this is my first time with them and I can honestly say they have been so helpful and thorough. I really feel like they care and I'm not just a statistic walking through the door.
How are you getting on?

I don't blame you - sometimes it's hard to hear other peoples fantastic news when they have no idea what it feels like to want a child so desperately but have problems.
That's one of the reasons I love this site - everyone here genuinely understands the emotions and ups and downs of IVF. The support network is brilliant.
That's what I love about the site as well - not many of the team know about my treatment (I don't want their pity). They must wonder what is the matter with me at the moment!

Well I thought I would go out and really enjoy my birthday then knuckle down the serious business of sorting my body out ready for tmt , serves me right I guess
But yes feeling ok now (was reading another thread where there was talk of Toblerone, I could really eat one now )
Hope you are feeling ok, not long to go now eh

Hello Everyone
Hope you are all enjoying the fab weather.

Glad to hear you are feeling better now ,sorry you had to put up with food poisoning on to of everything else. Hopefully now you can start to build up your strength for your next lot of tests. I have been trying to read Zita West and prepare myself with her advice but as she says NO CHOCOLATE I have but it aside!!! well actually I am just ignoring that bit IVF is tough enough without a chocolate ban.

How exciting all seems to be going well for you now, good luck with the IVIG tommorow.Don't forget you still have to drink all that water. I was constantly at the loo during mine drip stand and all!! Don't worry it really is not a problem and it is a chance to have a couple of hours rest.

Sometimes life is so unfair and things like that make it harder. I know what you mean about not wanting any pity,I think this site is great because you get empathy not pity and that helps. I hope we can keep you sane!

Hello isn't it nice when something gos better than expected? I hope your scan goes well and you can start down regging soon.

Glad you enjoyed your trip out it sounds lovely just the sort of pampering you need at this stage. Have you got any further with Zita West?
I had a great reflexology session last night and wish I could go everyday!!
Dose anyone continue with it during Tmt? or is it best to stop?
Hi there - I'm glad you enjoyed the treatment. My reflexologist said she didn't want to continue during treatment because it works on your meridians and may cause a conflict with the hormones coming into the body - she also said with the NK cells treatment she didn't know if there would be another problem.
It is really relaxing though isn't it, and amazing that your feet can tell such a story!!
Thanks for all your help and advice during my treatment, you've been an absolute Godsend and I couldn't have done it without you.
I will be there at 11.00 am for the drip and have to take some food and water with me - and about a dozen magazines
Hi Little P
I have just read one of your posts on another thread and read your history. I am sorry I never asked as I thought you may not want to discuss it, I hope you dont think I have been too fulll of myself , you could probably tell me a thing or two!!!
Wishing you lots of luck for the next few days. Take care.
That thought never crossed my mind - you've been absolutely brilliant. I've had so much support and help from you it has really kept me sane. Especially with the NK cells thing - I knew nothing about it and even less about what to expect but thankfully you've kept me going.
I hope that when you get the nod to get going I can support you as much as you have me.
