Update on my consult with Dr. Braverman/ Jeff :-)
Dr. B is so cool and nice! I love him already!
I am living in South Florida right now, but I do come up to visit in NY a lot. So, he said he is going to research and find an RE here if we need ART.
But, he is going to treat me now long distance. He said that even though we haven't been trying a long time (8-9 mos), we did the right thing by contacting him and we should not try by ourselves any longer.
He feels that my RA is a huge factor in our failure to get pregnant. He is sending me for bloodwork on Monday, including a thrombo test (?)
The good news so far is that Dr. B feels that my problem is not going to be too difficult to deal with. His plan right now is to do testing and then he is likely going to increase my prednisone to 20mg and add Lovenox.
I am praying that my testing sheds light on what is going on and hopefully he can work his magic on us!
