Hi sisters. Just done with dr jin ard 4:40pm. First time seeing her. Waited ard 20mins to c her. Showed her my med reports & a brief med history which I typed myself listing out my med conditions as well as records of the IVF journey. Also showed her photos of my embbies which didn't make it. She asked me to stick out my tongue n straightaway she exclaimed. I tot my tongue Blue colour or what. N she took my pulse thereafter. She said my womb is rather weak. She started me with accu first. Her accu is diff from dr Zou. She pokes more needles from head to foot. No electric current. I felt quite relaxed n in fact Abit stoned but cldnt fall asleep cos I just cnt sleep lying flat de. Hehe. She will start me on meds to tiao if my FET fails n she says she hope with some intense accu, I can make it this time. Today's damage:- $139.60 after 10%discount. Uob visa, DBS n HSBC got 10% discount. 1st consultation is $50 n subsequent is $15. Accu range from $50-90 depending on type of accu.

She says I 肾虚 n my blood circulation very bad. Never exercise. Heehee. She wants me to go brisk walk half an hour after dinner preferably everyday... She started me with accu first.

Sorry Ching dear. I cnt rem Posb got disc bo. If my memory dnt fail me, I think bo. There r a number of credit cards got disc. So when u call and make apt, ask the nurse. They very friendly n polite de. Hmmm she didn't say how intense wld b the intense leh. But she asked me go back accu this Friday again... N YES!!! "Jin" ex! Lolx
i1BB,
Hmm... It's ok, will still go to see her even if no discount lo... Desperate ma... Hehe
She asked u to go back this Fri, think she wants u to do the accu twice a week like Dr.Zou ba... Last time Dr.Zou mentioned to me if intense means 3 times a week...
So u also take her med? Is it in powder form or need to brew type?

Usually I cook abc soup, watercress, lotus root soup, herbal chicken soup, pork ribs with pear soup. These few r the common ones that I usually cook. Occasionally bak kut teh... Not exactly Cantonese kind of soup lah... But soups lor. Hehe
hi everyone
I'm new here and need some advice. I will be trying to conceive via ICSI but have yet to decide on which Dr.
Is there anyone here who's been to Prof S.C. Ng at Gleneagles? I like him but I really do not like his nurse. I've also read one review from a patient of his who said that he is really good but wouldn't recommend his clinic becuz the nurse is so bad.
I'm also considering Dr Charles MP Lim from Mt. E. Is anyone here a patient of his? Would you recommend Dr Charles?
Any comments will be much appreciated. Thanks.

I think I read someone asking whether can drink red date n longan daily. My advise is to take alternate days or few times a week.
Cos in Dec I drank daily n I end up bad sore throat n become sick before I start my stimulation jabs.
So I think take moderately will b better

I pop by this thread once in a while. My doc is prof sc Ng. He is an excellent doc. I conceived naturally under his care, not ivf though. I had one cycle Of ivf under him. the results as in usable embryos were much better than what I gotten under another famous doc. I have been to a number of docs. Prof Ng is the best so far. He did a very thorough check on me and my hb and thus we were able to tackle our issues more
Effectively. I have also recommended several friends to him and most conceived under him too. His nurses are quite bitchy. Must be quite thick skin cause the whole clinic will Probably know what treatment u are doing. Sometimes they can bE mean too but u just have tO be fierce to them once then they are ok liao. Now I'm quite friend friend with them already. Hahaha. If not for prof, I will prob change clinic. Really v good doc. He won't ask u to do unnecessary treatment or surgery and since he is a forerunner in this field, he will always have the latest info. Was just asked by him to take vit d to boost my chances. Apparently this was a new study that shows that vit d helps. Anyway good luck!
