Well I got my blood work back and my APA blood work was fine, but I have borderline high NK cells. For those that don't know what a NK cell is, it is a Natural Killer Cell (sounds cool, right?). Essentially, everyone has NK cells, but people with elevated NK cells may have a hard time getting or staying pregnant because the NK Cells attack the embryo.
The treatment for elevated NK cells is Intralipid infusions. Lipids are a fatty dietary supplement, often used when treating MS and cancer patients. It is experimental as a fertility treatment, but studies look promising.
Hopefully, this will help us finally have a successful cycle.
