That's good news, try to be strong and be calm and tell them everything that has happened. As much as possible of course.
Thinking of you x

Gv thanks.

I keep thinking about reflexology or acupuncture but I'm not sure?

Hi ladies, I ams till lurking, I hope you don't mind me popping in.

PM I started having reflexology last year and it is the only thing (apart from the depo injection which stopped my AF completely) that sorted out my irregular cycles and made the pain bearable. I went from cycles that were totally unpredictable to 28-29 days every cycle, and from being bedridden for a day every month to not even needing painkillers. I firmly believe it helped me. I know your problem is different but I'd say it's worth a try. I paid about £22 a session but that was mates rates. I truly feel for you, what you are going through is so unfair and a total failure by the NHS who seem to be ignoring their duty of care.

Picklekin ((hugs)) I hope this works out for you. Such a scary time but I have everything crossed for you.

Lots of love to you all.

Came so close to slapping someone today. Conversation in the office, conducted at a very loud volume.

Annoying beeatch: I hear your wife is pregnant. Congratulations.
Annoying smug man: Yes and it happened so quickly. We're so fertile!
Annoying beeatch: That's brilliant. And at least you know you can do it and are a real man.

I actually had to get up and leave before I punched them both. I happen to know that there are at least 3 people on my team who haven't been able to have kids (myself included) and that's just my team. There are other teams in the office and everyone could hear.

In other news DH has to go to the genetic clinic. And I can no longer watch the opening scene of 'Up' without crying hystercally.

Aww code huge hugs to you. Why the hell do some poeoplenot think before they open their mouths.

Angel I did try some years ago when I was on clomid, maybe I wasn't in the right place or therapist wasn't that good but think I might try again. Just need to find a good one that does fertility.

tea I am walking a fine line today too!

PM I really hope you can get started on IUI soon. Sorry it has resulted in an argument

pickle I really hope you are okay and have managed to be seen by a doctor.

code Some people are just completely self-involved morons. Sorry you had to deal with that.

Hugs to all those that need them

Saw the out of hours Dr last night, basically he doesn't know, they repeated the test, positive. They said that it was way to early in my cycle to get such a positive result (they made me drink 3 glasses of water to get me to pee, I hadn't thought they'd need it so I went before!) so they THINK my last period was a "fake" (one for all you SS out there!) and that I might be 6 weeks pregnant. They said the fact that I'm bleeding AND have pain is not a good sign, but there is always hope.

I'm off for a scan today at the hospital, please cross everything for me, I'm so scared.

Good luck at the scan pickle x
