It won't be easy, but you need to be STRONG advocate for yourself. If you think something is wrong say something to your doctor. No one else is going to do it for you.
If something doesn't make sense or you feel you are being brushed off - Speak Up and Don't Be Timid.

So many great things mentioned already, so I won't repeat them. One of the things I wish I knew from the get-go: Don't put your life on hold because of your IF. I used to plan everything around treatments, and can't tell you how many fun things, trips, events, etc. I missed out on because of this. I've come to the realization that IF has already robbed me of so much, and I won't give it so much power over me anymore. I'm going on the holidays, participating in the girls away weekends, and having a life again. It's been very freeing. (And I realize that this perspective isn't for everyone.... but heck, it's working for me at the moment). This x100000. I basically stalled my entire life for 2 1/2 years. It wasn't just because I was planning around treatments, but also because I was so caught up in my own grief about not being able to "just get pregnant." We were in the closet for the most part with our IF, and I had such a hard time just living my life. It's not easy to do, but try to force yourself to still be you. Don't let the IF define you.
