CLINIC FROM HELL OR WOT!!

Post by SBROWN »

Hi all,
Having a mad day so just having a moan :evil: :evil:

Is Southampton the clinic from hell or what!!


Had my day 4 bloood test today and was told if I am supressed they start next stage sat/sun or mon which would mean 18 days later ET on tues/wed/thur...

I have a weeks leave beginning of APril so asked if I could start on the monday so I would have a weeks leave to relax, go back to work for 2 days and then ET thursday(nice long weekend to recover)

The nurse phoned about half an hour ago to say I was supressed and they want me to carry on down regging for another week cos they cant fit me in to start until sat 04/04!! I am so pissed off now cos it has just delayed things by another bloody week.......It also means more money(not a lot but beside the point). We had enough Bruselin to last but now I have to carry on an extra week& will have to get some more.......


God.......is it just my clinic or do other people have difficulty getting booked in etc....??

Take care
Sarah :evil: xx

oh sarah

I had this happen to me once and I kicked up a fuss and they managed to fit me in. As you know a lot of things can go wrong and the other ladies who are booked i.e af could be late so keep phoning and they might be able to squeeze you in..

oh why do things not go to plan.

speak soon

Hi Sarah,

this isn't sounding good. I think they are having real issues there. I get on well with one of the receptionists there. So the last time I phoned I managed to have a good long chat with her about the state of the new clinic and the Consultant's scandal. I almost wish I had an excuse to phone her on Monday to get the low-down.

Before starting the IVF again we consider using Dorchester instead as my experience with Southampton the last time wasn't great. But we decided to stick with Southampton with where our jobs are. I hope we don't come to regret that decision!

Anyway, wine sounds like a fine plan. I am also avoiding alcohol, but I bet when my going gets tough I will resort to it

Have a good weekend

Karen

dear sarah/BB
bloody clinic!!!!! a friend of mine is going to Southampton for FET and she said I will be gobsmaked at the new clinic she drove past 3 times as she thought it was someones house until she saw the happy couple woth a child sign and thought this must be it.
She also thought where is the carpark and ended up parking on the road,she said the rooms were small and it was not a patch on chalybeate.
She is having injections at the moment and is having real difficulty doing them as she keeps drawing up nothing into the drawing needle,she said the nurse was in a rush and didn't explain properly!!!!

I went to Dorchester twice Mr Dooley is a lovely man and the clinic is really clean and comfortable all be it a little bit on the small side.
Lets see if I get in when I ring next time they may have sorted out all their problems by then Fingers crossed!!!!

Hi Sarah,
As if we don't have enough to go through..
I'd be recommending wine / chocolate / hot bath (maybe all at once?)

Oh Sarah

You must be soooooo pi$$ed off! :evil: I am so sorry they are still causing you so much crap. How can you be relaxed when you do get round to the crucial part of tmt.

I have a flat in Chichester which is not far from Southampton, just say the word and I will post something brown and steamy through their letter box. :lol:

Did I read it right, did you call me and the two Tracey's monkeys???

Hope you had lots of lovely wine and enjoyed it :P

Love Dagny xkx

Dagny.....

Monkeys!! As if I would say that(he he he)

Hope you are ok..........

I have calmed down a little bit now(thanks to some lovely wine)...........no point in letting it get to me, there is nothing I can do about it and by getting angry I am the only one who suffers

Take care
Sarah
