Update:

Justin and I made another trip to Wichita today to see Dr. Tatpati. We were once again impressed with her knowledge. She told us that all of the testing we had done a couple months ago all came back normal with the exception of one which was borderline. To tell you the truth I didn't understand everything she was saying expect that there is reason for her to suspect that my ovaries are aging faster than I am. However, the test results were right on the border of normal so she would like me to retest in about 4 months. We are praying that the next test will come back normal and her suspicions will be wrong.
There were 4 clotting tests that she did not order for me to have done the first time that she said we will go ahead and do. She is expecting them to come back normal since everything else has, but she wanted to be sure.
Because everything has come back normal, she thinks that the only thing we can do at this point is continue on with fertility treatments. The extent of those treatments are up to Justin and I. She told us I could take clomid (a fertility drug) and the progesterone one more time, but she wouldn't do anymore than that. Or we could move up a step and I would take the clomid as well as an additional fertility injection and the progesterone. At this point I really don't know what we're going to do.
Please continue to pray for us as we decide on the next step to take.
