Yes this is my 1st IVF.  I have been holding off on doing the HPT I am very tempted to do it but I would hate to get a BPF and then when I get my beta done it's a BFN.  I have been patiently waiting for my beta and it's MONDAY!  Try again (http://www.medicafertil.com) it works for me.  If it does not work send me a email at yuyin.***@**** and I will email you a link.

Ohh wow..that is such a good price...um when I have gone for betas in the past my doctor usually have the results in a couple of hours.  Have you done a home pregnancy test?  Is this your first IVF?

IUI costs $500.  My period was due 8/15.  Yes my symptoms seem like they are pregnancy symptoms but I do not want to get my hopes up.  I am taking it one day at a time!  And waiting for the day I test.  I wonder how long they take to give you back the results do you know?  I hope everything goes well with your appointment!

1.  The doctors in Mexico do not have anything like the shared risk program they have here.  Over there you pay each IVF at a time.  
2.  I went to Medica Fertile (www.medicafertile.com)
3.  Yes I live in Houston once I had the IVF completed in 8/3 I did not have to go back to Mexico.  I was told to have the beta done here in Houston and call them back with the results.  So depending on the results I will try IVF again in November.
4.  Over all I feel OK.  I have mild cramping, sore BB, some nausea, and yesterday I got a dizzy spell I had to sit down and fan my face.  I also had some brown spotting around the time AF was due for 2 days.  That scared me so I called my doc in Mexico and she told me to rest for one day and not walk that much.  I was taking progesterone vaginal and she told me to start taking it orally cause it could be irritating me down there.  Once I took a day off and stayed off my feet and changed the way I was taking the progesterone the brown spotting stopped!  

Good luck to you!

It is ALOT less expensive!  IVF was about $4000.00 and the meds were about $1600.00 a total of $5600.00!  I was told to go between the 1st and 3rd day of AF.  Once I started the process it took a total of 2 weeks.  I was told that it would take 2 to 3 weeks depending.  I was lucky that it only took two weeks!  Make sure you take all your paper work and give them any tests you have that way they don't have to repeat them.  I had alot of testing done here in Houston so I took everything and gave that to them.  So they only asked me to have two additional tests done and DH also had to have some testing done.  Once we were done with all the testing the doctor told us what the next step was.  We had all the testing done in May and did IVF in July!  Let me know if you hae any other questions.
