have my 10 min consult with Braverman tomorrow and I need help..
Im not sure what to say in such a short time or what to focus on.
edit:so it was a fast 13 min. He feels I would need immune testing due to my past medical history.

I beleive Dr. Braverman offers free 10 minute consults. He is somewhat $$$ and doesn't take insurance; which is probably why he offers this.

Oh... if this is the case the first question I would want to know is what steps he takes.
Tests
Clomid
Clomid/IUI
IVF
etc.
During my consult with my RE he explained all the statistics and percentages. But what I was most interested in was how long it would take to get to the first step of trying something outside the box. I am finishing up tests on Friday and if I don't get a BFP this cycle I will start clomid/IUI next month.

It is kind of pretty much the apointment before the appointment.
I basically gave him my long story short, he then told me what tests and actions he would recommend me taking based on what I told him.
I was pretty much decided on him already based on some personal recommendations so after I spoke with him we got the ball rolling on ordering his fancy blood work and paying the fees associated with sending that out and then having the results interpreted.

I couldn't afford him so I went with SIRM but he was pretty spot on with my treatment and what he thought was going on with me. Dr. T agreed and did all the immune testing and I ended up pregnant after a suppression cycle which Dr. B was recommending. The guy knows what he is talking about and Dr. T worked with him for many years so they follow similar protocol- just know Dr. T is not as extreme with meds and clinical trials that Braverman is into.

He didnt say what he would treat me with but I guess he would first need to see the results.
Its too overwhelming and I dont know if I can move forward, between the $$ and decisions.

Before switching to RS of NY I too had a quick consult with Dr B. He didn't accept my insurance(I think he accepts very few) so the OOP was way too high for me.
