Guest guest Posted January 31, 2001 Report Share Posted January 31, 2001 a Do you use Robitussin to increase your ewcm? I had a friend that used it and it really worked well for her. Her dr said just taking a normal dose once a day would work and not put too much med. in her body. I've heard other dr recommend up to 3 doses daily. My friend just had her little boy last month!

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2002 Report Share Posted July 30, 2002 My daughter is also 4 and begs me for a brother or sister almost every day. It is so sad to hear her compare herself to her friends who have siblings and then hear her say " Why does Taliana have sisters and I don't!? It's not fair! I don't have anyone to play with! " And just a few months ago she hit me with " If I don't have any brothers or sisters, when you and Daddy die I will be all alone! " said with tears in her eyes....it was just awful. So I know how you feel.....believe me. And when people start questioning why I haven't " given " my daughter a sibling yet I am very straight forward with them and explain that I had intrauterine scarring as a result of a difficult birth with Hannah that has made it very difficult to have more children and even after having the scarring removed I have had 3 miscarriages but we are still working at it....that usually SHAMES them into shutting-up!! Hang in there! Gwen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 a, Hi, I'm one of the other UK ladies - we've " spoken " before. Just a bit of background; I had a hyst last October in London and it didn't work - all the scar tissue returned!I didn't find this out for definite (although I knew myself) until April. I then deliberated, hummed and haahed, for a couple of months and finally convinced myself into going to Germany for surgery with Dr G. I had the hyst on 16th July - last Friday I had my first real AF for over 2 years (including pregnancy)!!!!!!! I know that in the UK it's different to the US, where people are far more likely to keep on changing their doctors until they find one that's best for them. In the UK, the NHS culture just doesn't encourage that kind of thing - and so we are even more wary of seeking advice further afield. It's a difficult decision to make - going abroad, having an operation - but it's just so worth it! Ask as many questions as you want about the practical aspects from the UK ladies who have already been - I'm sure we'd all be happy to answer your concerns - and then really, seriously consider going over to see him. I'm not saying that all UK drs are no good - that's nonsense! - but as yet we don't seem to have been able to find anyone who really knows their stuff where AS is concerned. I would hate to see you go through IVF when you still have scarring and take any risks. Lastly, before I get off my soapbox , my UK dr told me when I had my 1st hyst that even though he had removed all the scar tissue, he hadn't managed to see my tubes, and therefore even if the scar tissue didn't return (which it did!) I would need IVF. Dr Gallinat handed me before I left Germany several photographs of the inside of my womb with clear images of 2 clear, undamaged tubes.........

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 Hello Louiza, Thanks for filling me in on your wonderful success story concerning your trip to Germany. You definitely made the right decision to go and have made me more confident about taking that route if Mr. Lower from Barts Hospital (where I am being sent next!!) is not able to help. I may well need a bit of assistance with some of the practical issues if this is the case and really appreciate your kind offer of help. Thanks again and I'm so, so glad to hear your good news - it will help keep me feeling positive - I'm not ready to give up yet!!
