Cheryl,

Know your frustration. I got very lucky 4 years ago and discovered Dr. Marci Krop in Reston. She's a wonderful RE. Someone both my hubby and I can talk to. She's performed 2 surgeries for me and we can't say enuff nice things about her. I'm currently being tested for pcos but also have a hemorrhagic cyst that won't respond to treatment. Probably looking at a 3rd surgery soon but I can honestly say that we both trust Dr. Krop and feel very safe & secure with her. I wouldn't expect her to immediately whip out the ol' RX pad and start writing but do you really want someone who would do that without any checking on their own?? Check her out!!

Good Luck!! Anon
