There do seem to be loads of clinics abroad it seems to be a matter of tracking them down. I found one in Cyprus earlier, my Mum lives in Cyprus so that might be a possibility. Also saw one in Barbados, think of the sun tan I could come back with!

Barbados sounds wonderful Gail, but remember that it would be a long haul flight back :?

Good luck with your research into treatment abroad. Big J (Taylorjools) and a couple of others are having treatment abroad soon. Big J, I know, is going to Barcelona which I think sounds lovely - what do you think? Big bonus her consultant is a George Clooney lookalike :D

I have just had an email back form Ceram clinic in Spain but as it will be my first go at IVF I would need to go out there for an initial consultation, I do think thats a good idea but I just havent got enough holiday to take from work this year, so would have to postpone to next year :( Im still investigating though. what I may do is have a cycle of IVF here which (PMA) will work, however if it doesnt I might then go abroad when Im more aware of what its all about.
:D

Hi ladies

sorry Gail about the holiday thing :cry:

I tend to forget about that because I am in rehabilitation after a breakdown so don't have to take time off to do this - just need a medical certificate to say what I am doing with my time.

As I offered before you can always talk to me about this if it helps :roll:

Hey BigJ

Glad to hear that the packing is finally done. Do you think you might need a change of underwear and a toothbrush though? Might be an idea to pop them in your LARGE handbag just in case.

I am so excited for you.....not long now! I really hope everthing goes to plan. Sending tonnes of PMA to Barcelona and keeping everything crossed for you.

With the amount of laughter and joy you bring to this board you have got to have loads of good karma in the bank!

Good luck to you and DH
