[quote=Anonymous]OP here, my nurse wrote and said the doctor is making arrangements for testing the embryos.  I'm relieved but still furious that they fought me on it and left me tortured thinking they would make me choose between losing the financial comfort of shared risk and risking more miscarriages that would cost me 6 months and untold heartbreak each.

I HATE that they thought it was up to them, those embryos were mine, the risk was mine, and it was MY body and heart that they were asking to take a chance by trying to prevent my testing.  My 6 months lost per miscarriage.

Obviously they found abnormalities in the karyotyping of the other couples--though that didn't affect my determination to test MY $20,000 embryos!

While I'm FINALLY relieved for myself, I hope with all my heeart that the doctor and anyone else involved in delaying this obvious decision one day soon feels the torture of someone else controlling a medical decision that is puts them or better yet, a loved one (my family was tortured thinking I may have to risk another miscarriage with embryos that had already caused three), at great risk for heartbreak, for arbitrary and unreasonable reasons.  May they feel that, and know it's karma, and regret leaving me hanging for so long, asking me to wait, which by definition suggests that they were thinking of trying to prevent me from doing it.

I want my baby but damn the industry to hell for the unnecessary anxiety and heartbreak.  [/quote]
