Re: MARY: Need advice: was ud, now su w/2 cervixes - resection surgeons in Mass

[Guest guest]

Heidi,

Thank you for your note. I plan to send him my medical records and a

summary of my history so we can get to an action plan the day of my appt.

I appreciate your recommendation. On one hand, I feel I have lost a

lot of time, being misdiagnosed as a UD and doing so many IVFs, but on

the other hand, I am grateful to have found you and the lovely ladies

on this board.

I will keep you posted, and please keep us all posted as your due date

is just around the corner!!

Thank you again.
