hihi nicki, i was at the lister for my 4th treatment and had blood test
for nk cells and i was borderline i think just over 200, it is a fairly
new idea about nk cells but they think by treating with steroids, it
will stop the body from rejecting the embie.
I took the steroids the day of et, if i can remember correctly, and if
u get a positive u continue with the steroids until 12 wks when u are
weaned off them, they say u might have some side effects, but to
be honest the only one i had was not getting off to sleep and ended
up reading till the middle of the night.
Hope this helps, alisonn
