ICSI - wait times

i wonder if anyone has any tips or advise? We have just been told that we need to go for ICSI, trying to come to terms with it

Also, Is it worth going through NHS or just go for private? Just read some posts about delays with NHS, wonder if thats still the case? Can anyone advise how long they had to wait to start their treatment?

We are based in Manchester

Would love to hear from you

Thanks

Sara

Hiya, I was asked to lots of blood tests at different times in my cycle. This took a while as I'd just missed one of the days so had to wait a full month for the next time. Also the NHS mucked up my chlamydia one so I had to then have that done at the clinic. But once the bloods were done and sent then it was all pretty quick; so much so that my medication only just arrived in time!Not sure about NHS as we weren't eligible but I have heard the same about waiting times.

Not what you're looking for?
