Thanks ladies for your input. I am going to make an appointment to see Dr. S. (Off I go to get another referral ). You are both right - I just can't shake the feeling that these issues are important on my ttc journey and I just can't embark on IVF without feeling like I've covered all bases.

Butterfly - my story is very similar to yours - my jaw almost hit the floor! I have PCO on u/s with normal hormones except slightly elevated androgen. I also have/had RA as a result of glandular fever - I had CFS as a side effect, but I recovered from that, with mostly just joint pain now. The weird thing is that I had a naturopath say practically the same words - you have an RA disorder that is rare and hard to identify! I had been to one GP who diagnosed RA but no others would confirm this. Now it has been discovered that have MTHFR! FYI - protein C is on the testing panel that I had at SIVF.

Collo - I am sorry for your loss and would love to hear more about your thyroid issues.

Thanks for all your help ladies.
