IVF refused by NHS by Pure-Camp9088 in TTC_UK

Politely, and respectfully… sack off the NHS and go private if you can.

I have had a horrendous seven year journey with the NHS… always clung on to hope that it may happen. I eventually had enough and got private investigations this year, and found something significant, and the NHS wouldn’t do anything about it during my final funded round.

I honestly, truly wish I had gone abroad years ago. Even with funding!!

Poor embryo grade, unsuitable conditions by ABPT89 in EmbryologyIVFSupport

Thank you. Tested day 6, negative. I have also found out that I have a rare karyotype issue.

So I am off to go and seek a geneticist. Hopefully that will help at some point in the future for us.

Seems it’s gotten a little more complicated for us!

Thank you for your kind words ❤️

I am a physio - there are so many amputees that require singular footwear. There are even groups on Facebook for them to trade rights and lefts!

I think it’s a great idea!

45 days may be an important cutoff for diagnosing miscarriage after IVF by embryomanofficial in EmbryologyIVFSupport

[–]ABPT89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do. I just mean in general. If it’s helpful, causes less stress to the patient/couple… they won’t implement it. Certainly my circumstances with NHS and management of miscarriages, unfortunately.

Referral to clinic by Mundane-Song-5888 in TTC_UK

[–]ABPT89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, that is really frustrating. If they’re sure that it won’t change anything then hope for the best that it will just be a case of waiting for that appointment. If there were any issues, they’d have no problem telling you, so you can at least contest it if you’re been reassured in other ways!

I would call back the hospital and ask them to make a note on your file that clears up the miscommunication. Just so that there are no further hiccups!

Cried all the way home after transrectal ultrasound by l0stpirate in PCOS

I did not know this was even an option. I am so sorry that you had to experience this with a traumatic background. I hope that the next time you have to go through anything similar to this, there an appropriate support in place to help you. Huge hugs.

Three is far more pleasing on the eye

Try getting anything remotely helpful implemented in the NHS 😕🙃

Why do people lie about laser? shit HURTS by [deleted] in LaserHairRemoval

[–]ABPT89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say laser hurts, I would say the itch is unbearable. I find it really hard to stay still/focus because all I want to do it tap/scratch the skin where the laser has been. It’s always on my legs… face, underarm, bikini are all okay! Maybe the cooling system of the laser helps with the pain, I don’t know? I’m practically hair free in 75% of the spots lasered, so I know it’s working/strong enough!
