    Finally made my appointments.
    Will see MO on Monday morning and have baseline uterine ultrasound same afternoon. I, too, plan to take it at night. Be well!

    I sent a reply and don't see it here. I have bad luck w/this site. Anyway, so glad you made the appt. Life is busy! I swallowed the first pill last night and am still here:) Probably takes a few wks for any SE's. We must give it a try. Take care, Linda

    Thanks for replying to me. I did start taking it on Fri night. I looked at the bottle a few days, and these responses made the decision for me. I'm so glad you're not having side effects. Hope I can say that to you in a couple months. Give those sweet children a hug for me, too! I have a precious 2 y/o grandchild. I want to be here, also. Hugs, Linda

    This is good news Linda and I pray it stays this way! It was a beautiful day here also. I love Fall and it has arrived! Guess it's time to put my bathing suit away. LOL
