Wafflesmommy- we were not given the options that you are speaking of. We just did one cycle and ended up with 5 embryos. We do pay an annual fee to store the remaining embryos and sperm.

I am 7 months pregnant with our first baby due to a frozen embryo transfer. Immediately after our egg retrieval and sperm retrieval we decided to freeze all of our embryos (5 total) because my husband ended up being very sick because of CF issues. We decided that wasn't a good time to start...

My hubby is almost 9 months post- transplant and his clinic put him on tami-flu about a month ago as a preventative measure. They chose to cover all of their patients that are less than one year post transplant with tami-flu. The flu has been a monster this year!

Hi, Jane, my husband will be actively listed within the next week. He just finished the last 2 steps of the evaluation (bone density and dental check-up) The nurse said his LAS was 32 a couple of weeks ago, even though he was inactive on the list. Good luck to your son! Do you know what his...
