Rashal i've tried tongji before for abt a year but didnt managed to conceive naturally. I believe it depends on individual body system whether the treatment works.
I find dr loh ok leh. Although abit rush but he still take the time to go thru my *thick file, ask me qn, ans my qn (i didnt ask him many qns though) and finally put me on ivf. But i find him like to suan pple leh cos i kana suan by him each time i visited him...haaa

Before i switch to dr zou i used to see one tcm at race course, she also has a clinic in tampines. She was recommended by my colleag who conceived naturally after seeing her. This tcm also got many ivf patients. If u want i can gv u her contact...but her med needs to brew too and she has fixed time stationed in tampines

Janice-ginger also consider heaty, so U still need to double yr fluid intake.
Though the bloatedness, but is worth trying.
Be +ve wor, U would be much better by the time U ET.

Leor, do not eat panadol extra.. its not good for body! The nurse from KKH advise only can take normal panadol or bb aspirin prescribe by doc. Do not self-medicate. If you really unwell, please go 24hrs women clinic.. you could be suffering from ohss.
Janice,
5 is a good number. Don't worry - rest well and relax, ok?
Ceraine,
I don't have details of the TCM physician at Teban Gardens - I was going to ask from my parents only when I go. The physician is apparently going to China on Monday so he has told my dad that I would have to come down over the weekend if I would like to see him soon. I just saw Dr Xia Rong and have a month's worth of medication though - feel it's rather wasted if I just not eat them.
Shoes,
Dr Xia and Dr Zou are cousins? How interesting. So Dr Zou is from China too?
Rashal and Perper
I have tried Tongji before as well. Firstly, as it's a free clinic, unless you go very early in the morning, the wait to see the physician and to get your prescription can be very long. Unless you know which physician Mark Lee's wife went to, you may be assigned another physician in the Infertility Practice Group also. I think I had a different one. I didn't find her very helpful. When I asked her what my medication is for, she just says "to help you get pregnant la!" I was thinking - that goes without saying, right? She can't be giving me medication for flu! But I would like to know what aspects of my health she is trying to improve - e.g. blood circulation or something.
Dr Xia is more helpful - e.g. my pre-ovulation medication, she says is to help improve the quality of my eggs. (She recently asked me to add goat placenta powder also.) My post-ovulation medication, she says is to induce my body to produce progesterone to sustain the lining. She is gentle in manner and quite reassuring. When I told her about my cramps after ET, she kept telling me not to worry. It may not happen again the next time and that it's good I have 5 embryos stored.
Rashal, she only comes from Beijing one week every month. I think for this month, she is going back end of the week so if you would like to see her, call Eu Yan Sang Paragon soon. Otherwise, you would have to wait till mid March. Cost wise, it depends on your medication - one month's supply is usually around $300 for me.
