I need to get something off my chest more then anything I think and would like to know how the journey was at the beginning for anyone else
I have had 4 ectopics - both tubes removed 0 children
After my last Salpingectomy and ectopic in August I was encouraged by the consultant to start the IVF ball rolling straight away with my GP I did this at the start of Septemeber. Since then it feels like has been one big headache of mess ups!
-We made the original appointment for the referral went sat down went through a few bits made appointment for my bloods
-Husband needed to go do a sample closest place this can be done is over an hour away - by appointment on a 2 week rolling basis appointments are released at midnight. Took a while to get one in the first place, went and did his bit over a month ago. Heard nothing back about the results so he phoned the doctors - yes everything came back normal and fine. They have just phoned up about 2 weeks after been told everything was fine to be told he has to go and do it again!!!
3 weeks later went and did my bloods nurse was very confused as doctor had asked for 7 vials of blood! But she took them all doctor had also put down for swabs - nothing had been said to me about those and the nurse my appointment had been made with couldn’t do them. Had to wait another 2 weeks for an appointment for swabs.
Phone call from them I need to make another appointment to speak to the doctor as she missed something off from the referral another 3 week wait for a phone call.
Bloods come back as unusable - another appointment needed to redo them
Go for another blood appointment - told most of my bloods came back ok but need to redo full blood count - 1 vial of blood done
- told 2 should have been retested not one now got to wait until 23d Dec for another blood test.
