Hi Kelli~

This is a topic you will see all your Sisters here pull together for you on. It may be possible and there could be underlying factors. I wouldn't give up though. I wouldn't let many days go by before getting on the phone to find an Endo Specialist who deals with Infertility as well.

I am a memeber with the Endo Association. You can email me offsite and give me your town and I will call them and find who is in your area. Time is of the upmost importance now.

I don't mind helping that way at all. Also if you are a member of EA..just so you know (which is $35.00) a year they have a program called Miracle Miles which I just learned of recently from a Sister here. Turns out they were going to fly me and my family (we have a little girl adopted) to my specialist in Memphis round trip.

It got cancelled because I need to go to Mayo now but what a WONDERFUL plan for round trip for you and your family if you need to go out of town. They will let your hubby come back earlier than you if needed.

So with all that I am saying if you need to go to another state it's OK..the Specialist Nurses will help you find hotel accomedations near by to make this whole experience a pleasant one.

I am here for you! Please don't give up just yet OK?

Thinking of you....
