OK, we just got home from a mini vacation in the good ol' Windy City of Chicago. Fun times. :o) Now that we are back home it is back to business.
Step 2 = making sure all appointments are made, payments are done and medications are ordered.
We are still trying to finalize financing but I did order my fertility medications today! It feels like a really big step that totally commits you to going through with the first IVF treatment! The medications will be on our doorstep tomorrow, CRAZY!
I am glad to have something to be excited about. Our financing for the "Attain or Cost Share" program went south and now we are trying to figure out if we are going to "pay as we go" or scramble to find more funding for the "safer" financial plan. I was completely devastated when an unnamed (we will just call them evil-express) credit card company reduced our credit limit on the day our fertility place tried to process our costs! Dirty! The evil-express company denied coverage and then sent us an "automated" message letting us know our account had been reduced effective immediately. When I called for an explanation it was because we had been making "minimum balance" payments on all of our credit card accounts, not late payments or missed payments but "minimum balance" payments. They are not supposed to have access to information from our other accounts, dirty dogs!
Anyway, we have enough financing to cover just one treatment and possible 1-2 frozen embryo transfers if we have any. The benefit of the "Coast Share / Attain" plan is that once you get funding for the treatments you don't have to think about it again you just move on with each treatment where as paying for each cycle individually stresses you out because you have to go find funding EVERY time.
That is why I am happy the medicine is at least on its way, it is nice to have something to look forward to, regardless of weather or not we will be able do another treatment for a while.
Wish us luck! :o)
