My letter came today!!!

MY LETTER FROM DR. H CAME TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!
Sorry for screaming, but I am so excited!!! I've been asking DH every day for the past two weeks if there was an envelope from PPVI waiting for me. This is what Dr. H said:
"You are experiencing functionally abnormal cycles and have had one miscarriage." (remember, only the MD trained in the Creighton method has ever referred to my chemical pregnancy as a true pregnancy, therefore a real miscarriage)

Per my CrMS charts: "It reveals dry cycles and variable length post-Peak phases. These findings are often associated with hormonal dysfunction, ovulation defects, and/or endometriosis."
He recommends: thorough hormone evaluation of menstrual cycle without medications, a thyroid system dysfunction panel, an ultrasound series to determine whether there is an ovulation-related defect, and a diagnostic laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, and selective HSG, endometrial cultures.
He also said his schedule is out three to four months for him to do the lap, but I could get in sooner if I saw his partner Dr. K. Sooooo, now I just need to call PPVI tomorrow!

Because we are going to Mexico the middle of February, I wouldn't want to to get in for surgery sooner then that.  I will hopefully have a better idea of the timeframe for each doctor's schedule when I call tomorrow!

That is great news. I had a similar experience when Dr. Mattingly went thru my hormone study with me and showed where it could be improved. It only took a year of Creighton charting to get my cycles going before the testing could happen.

Great news! So glad you are one step closer.

Also congrats to your DH on his new job!
