Yep drs here are so happy to have any patients who pay privately. I already get quarterly blood tests for vitD anyway (at my expense). Healthcare is sooooo much cheaper here but it is heavily govt subsidised. Like 30 Euros for a bunch of scripts and bloodwork. Blood tests can cost 40-120 euros depending on how much is being tested. I know for a fact my (govt) insurance wouldn't cover much of what I ask for but I get better care paying myself. I wanted private insurance but no one will take me due to the severity of my scoliosis.
If I'm not pregnant this cycle I'll give it a try.

I think I agree on the DHEA. I think that if your doctor is happy for you to try (ie. not saying- no, no, no!) then it might be worth a go, as long as its not going to interfere with your other medication you need for health reasons. BUT if you are going to be changing sperm donors next month, I might be tempted to try 2-3 months with the new donor first, just to see if that will fix it.
Well, if your patience can stand it, anyway! 
And that's great they are happy to do hysteroscopy for you too! I know what you mean that it likely wont show up anything, but its better to tick as many boxes as you can, I think.
Best of luck hun, FX for this month too xxxx
