I know you're right. Yesterday I did some research and called around and got appts with a variety of endocrinologists in my general area. The one I'd really like to see is booked until October, so he must be good! I made an appt anyway. I also have an appt with another new endo that I know nothing about on June 2. She works at a university hospital, so I'm hoping she'll be up on the latest thinking and research. And I'm going back to see my old endo on Tuesday, just to lay it all out for him, and see if he has anything helpful to say, and check my records for myself for the last 10 years.
The truth, I think, is that no one knows what to do in a situation like this. My body isn't following the rules. So, I think I'll have to use some intuition. And I've been seeing a nutritionist and an accupuncturist, and I'm starting with a new T who specializes in fertility/pregnancy issues, doing Pilates, and visualizing being a mother, etc. and I'll try anything else at this point. I must say, I'm enjoying the accupuncture and Pilates, and I'm eating a lot better than I used to. So that's got to be worth something, baby or no.
Thanks for your encouragement, and positive stories. I'll keep looking for a decent Dr. around here.
I love your story about sending a picture of the baby to your old doc!
