Frustrated!

I have a bit of a rant about my clinic and GP.

My RE said I have to hve a thrombophilia and blood clotting blood test, the clinic cant do it and if they did would have to charge me, but I am a nhs patient. I was told to go to my GP. I asked them to send a request to my GP as they would not do it without. Clinic said they would. I went to the GP's this morning for bloods and the nurse refused as they 'do not do private requests'. I could not believe it, one it is becuase I bruise easily and bleed heavily, and two it is not a private request, I am an nhs patient!
I called the clinic, they said they will have to check the notes and get back to me. I now need a blood request form and to go to the hospital for it, my GP will not do it!! I am not sure if the clinic will give me a blood request form.

I may have to pay for it if I can not get it sorted! I really need this before I start my IVF at the end of the month!!
Sorry about the irratic rant!! I am starting to lose hope with the clinic, with my IVF chances and now feel even more down.

There seems o be a few BFP's in the IF world at the mo which is such great news, I am so pleased and it gives me hope. It does also make me wonder if it will ever be me.....?

A quick update

I have my FSH, LH etc CD5 blood test tomorrow. I hate having my blood taken as I have shit veins, but I am excited as it means things are moving forward, it is another thing ticked off the list, another step closer to IVF and my baby!

Things between DH and I are a little strained at mo. He has a lot on at work and is very stressed and I am very down at the mo and work is shit. I think the strain, stress and worry at the mo is taking its toll on us, we are pushing each other away instead of pulling together. We have been through these periods before, periods where we withdraw into ourselves and it is not good. The intamacy and affection disappears and we become housemates instead of husband and wife. That is not to say we stop loving each other, we just need alone time. I hate it and he hates it too, but it is our way of coping. I do worry though that one day the period will not end and we will just stop being together. We have talked, got things off our chest and now we will be fine again and it will be us again.

CD1? - peeved *updated*

Woke up with the worst cramps ever this morning, my belly was aching all night, but this morning the pain was awful, I has to some pills straight away. I couldn't even string a sentence together, the pain was so consuming. I presume my period will arrive any second, I presume I am not pregnant!

I was really hoping to have less painful periods after my lap, doesn't seem like it is going to be the case! I will update if AF does show, I expect she is just around the corner.

The very crap thing if today is cd1 (other than not being pg!) is that I might not be able to get my day 2-5 bloods done as that is due tomorrow or over the weekend and my doctors need at least a week to book any form of appointment! So much for being fast tracked to IVF if I can't actually get the tests done!

*Update*
AF appeared this eve, bollox! That is all hope for this cycle gone!
