I went to see Hollywood fertility clinic 2 years ago, back then I weight 124kgs, and the lady said to me in a round about way, 'come back in 6 months when you weigh 89kgs, that will be $220 thanks alot'.
So I paid her the money for her rediculous 20 mins, and walked out the door completely squashed. I vowed that I would not go to be treated by a clinic again as this was the third time that I had lost weight and gone back and recieved the same crap with the same bill only more each time. I go a prescription from my GP a year later and fell pregnant, only to lose the baby, as I said in previous post.
I am currently seeing Dr Whiteside who deals with your body as a whole, treating with pure progesterone and other hormones.
I am currently on an anti-depressant, 1600mg metformin, and 200mg of Progesterone which I am starting again after not taking it for a while.
I am south of the river.
I have felt for so long, that no matter which way I go, no matter what I do, its all still just going to cost me a fortune, and cost me even more emotionally, and I am just not strong enough anymore. You know?
Herbalists, Homeopaths, Naturopaths, what ever, you name it I have tried it, and all for nothing. Now I am just whinging...LOL. I will stop now.
thankyou once again for your reply, I do so appreciate it.
Hayley

Hi Hayley, just saw your post and im in a very simular situation to you including being told by doctors that I'm too overweight or to stop eating junk food.. which I don't! anyway, I'm about to try Inositol, I would love to get a hold of D-chiro Inositol but its waaaay too expensive and needs to be ordered from overseas, postage alone is over $90 for just one bottle of tablets! Musashi has a powdered form of Inositol and you can also get it from buckwheat and some other grains/beans (search this forum as there is more info on it) also some people have had great success from Carob Syrup! don't ask me how it works but apparently it does. Inositol is a form of B vitamin (but isn't technically a vitamin as the body produces it itself) Its called Vitamin B8, I did a google search for Vitamin B8 and some of the results pointed to it being Biotin but its actually Inositol. I will let you know how I go but maybe research a little about D-chiro Inositol, Inositol and D-pinitol.. you will see what I mean, its given me some hope as I have been TTC for some time now and I'm 32yo with NO kids (cept furkids).. sick of trying things that may or may not work!! I want a quick fix now!
