Sorry to hear that epsil

What cd are you now lily?

Today is CD20. Yet another super strong OPK this morning. Cervix doesn't feel right for ov and although I have ewcm, it's more sticky than eggwhitey. Temps have gone up by about 0.2/0.3 of a degree since when I thought I was pre-ov.

VK - if you don't know when you ov'ed, i'd probably just wait it out and test next weekend. Atleast then you don't waste tests and will know that you've got the right answer with the test you do

T2D I might be being stupid but where do the comments show up? I can't see any button to say leave a comment and I can't see any that have already been left!

First you need to register an account with the macmillan site - then verify the email address - and then set up the online community account (I found this in the help section cos was struggling to find the link to it). BZ said that even after she had done this, she couldn't then type in the comments box on her phone. Mine was fine on the laptop - so maybe it just doesn't like phones

It took me a few mins to navigate it - but it is easy once you know what to do - so hopefully a few more people will sign up :cool:

Oh, and you have to be on the individual thread bit to write/see a comment - you can't just see them by looking at all the threads.

Great news t2d, well done. I am already registered on the macmillan site as I used it for info when my mum was first diagnosed, so will go and look out my login info

I'm still feeling a bit sorry for myself, which I really don't like, but can't seem to snap out of just now, I am very irritable, and then I get annoyed and upset because I don't know why I'm so grumpy-I can hardly look at or have a conversation with mrh without getting cross or weepy. This is the AF from hell-they are usually ok, but I'm not liking this one at all-don't know if that is because of the norethisterone. Had the prostap inj yesterday and have brought home a case of gonal f to start injecting tomorrow :eek:
I think I have to go and treat myself to something nice today as I have some Christmas gift vouchers somewhere

Hope everyone has a nice Saturday x

big loves Mrs H, noristhisterone makes my mood when I'm on so much worse, I think it's cos it's a much bigger drop in progesterone x

Hello ladies
I am just popping over from the TTC thread. We have been TTC for 10, nearly 11, months and I have just been diagnosed with PCOS. I have very irregular periods (last one was November, one before was July) so my GP has said she will refer us to a fertility specialist.
For those of you who have been referred, how long did it take for your GP to do the referral? Also how long from your GP appointment to your FS appointment?
Thank you xx

Hi Becca,

My GP did bloods at our first appointment(Aug) to speed the process up so the FS would have some info and he referred us the same day as the bloods. Took only a couple of weeks from the referral to first appointment with the FS(Sept). Don't know if he pushed it through faster because of my age. The waiting list for IVF in our area is 2 years and I was about to turn 38. Not sure if it would have taken longer if I had been younger. I live in the Glasgow area by the way.

I was referred to a gynae so not the same process but I was given the choose and book form at my gp appointment and my appointment was like four weeks later I think x

We went to gp after two years, hadn't had period for 4 months. She ordered bloods and sa same day. Then had 9 month wait to see fs x
