hi all,
mrs M, thanks for asking. I was fine until yesterday morning. I called the clinic yesterday to ask them why they have not given me any dates yet, I was sooooooo mad

from what she said. Firstly she said that she cant find my file and that she asked if the id number i gave is correct, after that she said "oh I found it but it is written UNDECIDED on your file. She added that I need to register in order for them to give me a date. Finally she said that the HSG scan was not suggested by the ivf clinic and it is not part of the procedure. The blood test will be done only after the first visit.
I don't know what to make of all this. I can't express how fed up I am. My questions are, Why didn't the nurse who briefed me on my first visit tell me that I have to register first to start? Why did she emphasis on the HSG scan and asked me to wait until my first day of AF (I waited almost a month for this)? Above all, why was I asked to call two weeks after the HSG scan? I am really mad at this clinic for giving me confusing instructions. The worst is the lady who spoke to me over the phone was
pretty rude
This clinic is so different from my first clinic. I don't rememer anyone talking rude or being so careless in their instructions in my first clinic. Most of all everything was so fast and perfect. The reason I changed clinic was cost. It is the most expensive ivf centre here with the highest success rate. My current clinic is a well subsidised place for ivf but the success rate is slightly lesser than my first clinic. I decided to go here for the cost and their experience (they see more cases than any other centre here, so I thought the docs will be more experienced). I don't doubt the docs capability but the staff are not at all friendly or polite. I m sad that I have wasted time.
I am also angry with myself for trusting them so much and not asking them many questions (anyway they seem to be annoyed when we pose more questions). Well, I m trying to calm myself by thinking that we learn from our mistakes and that lucky I learnt this at the beginning of the cycle. I.m also thinking may be I should concentrate more on getting healthy before we start as I have not really started eating right yet. These people need more people skills besides their machine skills.
In sum, the lady has given me my first appoinment on 14th Dec. Gosh! I got to wait almost another two months to start. Lucky I've got a job to think about.
Sorry I m long winded today.
love all
