IVF Meds.

Well---finally, there's been a silver lining to this IVF thing.
The cost of meds: $57 for all of them except one!
"Really?"
The specialty pharmacy maintains that the insurance covers the drugs but not the IVF procedures themselves, and seriously---I RAN to get my debit card from the other room b/c I didn't want the price to increase over the few minutes it would take for me to pay over the phone.
What about the other drug? Well, it's getting pre-certed with a letter from the doctor explaining why I need it. Apparently it's just a formality so that it too can be billed under 'major medical,' and since I've met my deductible with the $1500 hysterosalpingogram---we're left currently owing $57.
Well, that and the $19,682.00 for the IVF with ICSI & Assisted Hatching, but hey---who's counting, right?
{and really, who IS counting? I can't keep it all straight. We've already lost track of how much we've spent on this journey, just since our first IUI on 12/31/11....}

Anyway....
We are ecstatic about this little gem of a surprise, and the bulk of the meds will be here tomorrow! Woohooo!
:)

We are soooooo getting ready.
We start our antibiotics on 7/30.
Did you know that? They require (they = the FDA, I think) require that both partners complete a 10 day course of antibiotics prior to IVF. Hmmmm.... We're learning so much.

I'll keep you all posted.
