Professor Quenby

[katkat2014]

For those that are reading. If you have borderline high uNK cells then Dr Q recommend prednisolone from ET onwards and also a scratch too. I am told to avoid aspirin, that's just a general thigh they don't believe on (and say it can for more harm than good). I did an ERA biopsy too (waiting for results) and this also counts as a scratch.

Hi how are you all doing? I am having my transfer next week, so fingers crossed.  Have you seen this article in the Guardian about Prof Quenby: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/mar/08/scientists-identify-cause-of-multiple-miscarriages-for-first-time

She was just on the Lunchtime ITV news talking about her breakthrough in the connection of recurring miscarriage and reduced stem cells in the womb. Very interesting x

Hi
I read a little about it in the news, was very interesting.
Had my biopsy done yesterday, so will await the results quite soon! Found Prof B to be very helpful.
Jenso hope your transfer goes smoothly, fingers crossed for you. Have you been following Prof Q protocol for this transfer.

Hello,
Does anyone know what 75mg aspirin translates into / how much clexane? Dr brosens/quenby don't seem to like aspirin but said clexane would be fine but didn't give me a dosage. My protocol says aspirin (given by my clinic).  That is in addition to prednisone from ET onwards.

There isn't an equivalent dose as such.  It has a completely different action to aspirin.  I used 40mg clexane and aspirin 75mg was added in later to help prevent eclampsia.  I wasn't keen on taking aspirin and it was the first one I stopped when I was bleeding at 16 weeks.

Hi

I'm having my biopsy done on Monday, do you take any painkillers before the biopsy?

Thank you x

[Tincancat]

Hi Melissa
I took painkillers before just paracetamol and ibuprofen because it can come a bit sharp.

Hi Melissa, I completely forgot to take painkillers but they offer you gas & air ( which was a bit weird but worked I guess!)

[Jenso]

Hi I didn't take anything and I thought it was fine. A little painful but over in ten seconds :-)
