There is no way possible that we could do it, if I was going to go to that length then I would just adopt, which I'm happy to do after we have run out of...
Thanks, Jane. I really appreciate you and Debbie taking the time to respond in such detail. I haven't had the DQ alpha done with my current husband. My...

The sizes sound fantastic! As Niki said, poor Jodi must be ready to pop. I'm so happy for you that it is all on schedule and I think we're all looking forward...
OK worked it out.... my email account name had been changed without me knowing by my ISP so Yahoo did not recognise the extn on it. Love, Rose ... on-line, ......
I wanted to introduce myself as I have been lingering here for some time trying to get a handle on my immunology test results. This group is very active and...
In the last day everytime I go to the bathroom and wipe, the toilet paper isn't totally clear. It is peachy brown like before you to start AF. It is not bright...
Hi, I am Jody. First let me tell you how sorry I am for your loss. Also, I am glad you
didn't settle for the "All should be well next time" standard phrase. I...
Take a deep breath. It can be so unnerving to see anything out of the
ordinary when we are pregnant. First, I have a friend who spots like that during her 1st...
Deb. I have heard that out of everyone that spots during 1st trimester, many end up fine. In other words, the spotting could be something COMPLETELY...
Not 100% sure about Matzer's testing, but let's give it a try. Your NK isn't bad, but I'm concerned about "Not supressed with IVIG". I think this means the...
Had to reread your post. Completely missed the positive cardiolipids. You are at risk for clotting. Could be related to abruption. Did you take Heparin last...
Jane I don't know if its in the wood work, but don't you think it's about time for DB to write a book. It would be so most easier for people to get some...
Hi Mike, I have been saying the same thing. But I did find an amazing book edited by Dr. Coulam called "Immunological Obstetrics". It's all there. Also the...

First, I know of Dr. Salafia (we're in NY as well, and will deliver at Mt. Sinai). She's good, but NOT sufficently trained to look at immune issues. Get back...
Forgot to add, we went to nogales for LIT at 10weeks of our pregnancy, due to low LAD and matching DQ alpha at 4.1 (the worst one to match). Mike ... From:...

Farmed fish are full of so much other rubbish it does not bear thinking about - you should never eat them either - if you like salmon then please try to get...
Hi Niki I'm so sorry about your poor baby. That must have been totally devastating for you. I hope that your committed efforts to find out why will pay...
Dear Debbie I'm not surprised you are worried, but really I doubt there is anything of concern at all. It is incredibly common to spot during the first few...
Dear Rose, I am so happy to have a UK friend! It is one thing to move but moving to a another country when you have medical issues is even harder. Thank you...
