I just don't know if the benefits outweigh the risks, especially since I will once again start a new round of fertility treatments this coming month... I can say I feel I am about 60% recovered... I am thrilled actually, since I now have more good days than bad days (although I still get daily headaches, but I am able to simply ignore them, or sleep them off when I don't take the advil)

So - Advice, warnings, whatever... all welcomed.
