Does anybody know anything about Serrapeptase and TFI????

I guess this enzyme is just so new on the market that nobody (ie: health "professionals") seems to know a damn thing about it and its supposed fibrinolytic effects. well here's been my experience so far. Since I've been taking it (about 3 weeks now) my asthma is gone! completely GONE. I never really had any real pain so to speak and my pelvic adhesions(which I've been told are severe) have never presented any pain in the past so there is no way for me to know if the serrapeptase is working to dissolve them. I also pee a lot more when I take a dosage (which now I'm up to about 9 a day, with nattokinase, bromelain, papain and some other stuff) and also my pee is GREEN! I dunno if that's good or bad. I recently read that Big Pharma isn't interested in marketing enzymes because they can't patent it, therefore they can't make any money off it. Well, I guess that's just the wonders of capitalism! IVF is like $6000 a pop, so why bother to explore something that may be much much cheaper and totally natural? I'm thinking of doing another HSG in a few months to see if there is any...difference.

The diagnosis Pt.II

Ok, so I had the lap done and despite holding out hope of the severity of my condition my worst fears were confirmed. Both tubes are completely blocked. It was also my first time under general anesthesia and I really didn't realize how invasive the procedure actually is. I woke up hours later in pain. The incisions were very small however (3 total) and they've healed very nicely. But anyway, back to the bad news. The doctor said I have severe adhesions on my tubes and of course he reiterated that my only option is ivf. Ivf ivf ivf. That's all I ever hear is ivf!
SO now what to do what to do??? I eventually got around to telling my b.f. He wants to get married this year and he kept going on and on about us having a baby, so I just gave in and broke it to him, he seemed sad. Now the tough part is about warming him to the idea of going through with ivf (he seems to think it's unnatural) Yeah well then so is getting surgery for your bum knee I said! His response...*crickets*. Well anyway, in the meantime I'm trying some other things out. Will it work? I really dunno, but it can't hurt to try. So I ordered a bottle of Fibrovera. It contains an enzyme called Serrapeptase that's suppose to destroy fibrin, or scar tissue. Many people have sworn by it for opening up arteries, and back pain and such, but so far havn't heard anything about it unblocking fallopian tubes. So for now, I guess I'll just be a guinea pig.
