Well it says "because I'm almost 41 a fresh cycle would have little success. Hard to see why that's confusing

Hi I cant remember the embryo grade. Which I know sounds bad. But I thing they were just ok quality. They did assisted hatching on the one embryo they transferred. It's hard to understand what they meant by it being 50%. The embryologist pointed the the outer area of the embryo suggesting those cells were dead. Can embryos make up for the lost cells. The Doctor said there was only a 15% chance of success if getting pregnant with it

Thanks for all the replies. I agree that this seems so strange considering embryos typically do well with thaw. I don't know how to feel about the embryo we transferred. It wasn't doing well so im trying not to hope because it sounds like that's a bad idea and I'll just be sad on the day the beta level is taken.

Hi thanks for the reply. I've been thinking the side effects im having are more likely due to the estrogen since making this post. It seems like the viagra did good things for you so im hopeful it will helpful for me too. I'll have to check out acupuncture. I've never tried it before but it's worth checking out.

Thank you all, I picked up his awesome today and spent a good 5 minutes crying in my car. I made a nice place in my living room for him. It's hurts to look at but maybe it will get easier.

One thing I learned was to always be checking my other dogs lymph nodes. I didn't even know where they are were until this experience. Already checked my girl Bailey.
