3rd ivf cycle

I just recently went through ivf for the 3rd time on July 8th, 2011.  I feel well, although lately i feel a slight discomfort in my lower left side.  It's hard to explain the discomfort.  I'm wondering if it might be my endometriosis acting up???I haven't felt it in awhile, due to the drug(lupron).  Once, last night i took tylenol-it did nothing to help.  The slight pain comes and goes.  I'am roughly 1 week away from my period-hope not-but it might happen.  Because i'am having these pains, should i still have hope or not?

Thanx for ur kind words. Yes i did get my tubes checked as well and even they appear to b normal.......However, my doctor says that my scan shows that i have a tendency to develop PCOD and may b that is the culprit. Though its not exactly PCOD but just to b on the safe side shez keeping me on METFORMIN _HCL drugs.......i do hope my second cycle turns out really positive. Anyways, when was your ET and how did it go?....and when is ur Beta? im keeping my fingers crossed for you too. lots and lots of sticky baby dust coming ur way.

lots of luck,
Sid

GOOD LUCK WITH THE DOC AND STARTING YOUR NEXT IVF CYCLE.  I'M 34 YRS OLD AND BEEN MARRIED FOR 8YRS-FROM SAULT STE MARIE, ONTARIO.  ANYWAY, I GOT IT ALL BYLATERAL TUBE BLOGGAGE AND ENDOMETRIOSIS.  OH WELL, LUCK IS NOT ON MY SIDE.  DID YOU HAVE THE TUBE TEST-TO MAKE SURE YOUR TUBES ARE O.K???THAT'S WHEN I FOUND EVERYTHING OUT ABOUT MY PROBLEMS.  BUT I CAN SAY THAT DON'T QUIT YET-AND YOU ARE SO YOUNG-DON'T GIVE UP.  I'M DONE WITH THE PROCESS WE HAVE BEEN IN THE MARRIAGE OF IVF FOR ABOUT 1YR AND A HALF-WE DID IVF 3TIMES-IT WAS SURELY STRESSFUL TO NO END.  WE WEREN'T ALSO EVER GIVEN THE CHANCE TO FREEZE-SO AFTER EVERY FAILED ATTEMPT WE WOULD HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN-CAUSE I DIDN'T PRODUCE ENOUGH EGGS.  ANYWAY, WISH YOU ALL THE BEST AND I HOPE WE CAN KEEP IN TOUCH.

Thanks for writing back....your kind words meant alot.  Anyway, i want you to also keep your head up and stay strong.  During my 1st and 2nd ivf cycles i wrote a little blog everyday on my computer.  It's something that i  felt helped me alot, since we were going through the stuff out of town and sometimes it was hard expressing my feeling to hubby and family all the time.  One thing is certain-unless you have actually done this process, no one really knows what u r going through.mentally and or physically.  Thanks again for writing back.
