Back to IVF
Well AF decided to show 3 days early so we're getting this show on the road. Ill do my CD 3 bloodwork tomorrow and start Lupron on day 21..so thatll be Oct 24. Egg Retrieval will most likely be in the 2nd week of November. Im excited to get this rolling again.
So i went to the Naturopath last week and it was really interesting. She told me i may have a gluten sensitivity and going on a gluten free diet will help lower my ANA (which is now 1: 160 nucleaor patterned, whatever that means) but it was 1:320 when trying for Jack so its lower but that was taken while on the Medrol.
So im now gluten free - i feel a difference, def not as bloated as usual so i think this chick was on to something. But let me tell switching over to all organic on top off gluten free - OUCH! on my wallet! But the food is actually pretty good...i confess, i ate a whole thing of cookies in 3 days! But for 6 dollars i should have enjoyed them!
Back to the Naturopath....she also put me on a "more potent" PNV, and antioxident formula called NAC and extra vitamins called ACES plus Zinc. I cant remember if it was the vitamins or the antioxidents but one of them was used in a study for RPL and the women who took it had a 82% success rate! Ill take it!!
She also told me to put Castor Oil on my belly and put heat on it, that will help too, somehow.
I really liked her and i hope this all works.
So for the next 6 weeeks ill follow the diet, go to Acupuncture 2x a week, take more supplements, eat all Organic and wish. hope. and pray. Pete says we should add "go to church" to the mix, which i think is a good idea.
